Giorgio Persano begins his activity in the ‘70s with the galleria Multipli, where his interest is focused on international contemporary art – in particular American Pop Art and Italian Arte Povera. He makes multiples in limited editions in collaboration with artists such as Pistoletto, Zorio and Calzolari.In 1975, some of these artists start using the Gallery space as a workshop, making installations and experimenting with creative processes that go beyond the constricting criteria of the exhibition. Since then he curates the projects and the production of the works by establishing a close collaboration with his artists.
