Biography
Born in 1938 in Bussi sul Tirino (Pe), Ugo La Pietra lives and works in Milan. Since 1962 he has developed an activity aimed at the clarification and definition of the "individual-environment" relationship. At the beginning of this work process he created knowledge tools (models of understanding) tending to transform the traditional "work-spectator" relationship. He worked inside and outside the disciplines, always declaring himself "researcher in the visual arts"; anomalous and uncomfortable artist and therefore difficult to classify. He communicated and disseminated his thoughts and experiences through an intense didactic and editorial activity. He has promoted research groups (Cenobio Group, La Lepre Lunare Group, Radical Design Group, Global Tools, Maroncelli Cooperative, Communication Factory, Libero Laboratory) and exhibition activities involving a large number of operators (artists, architects, designers).
