About Ugo Guidi

Ugo Guidi was born on September 14, 1912, in Montiscendi di Pietrasanta (Lucca) and studied sculpture and architecture at the Istituto d’Arte di Pietrasanta and at the Academy of Fine Arts in Carrara. A professor of sculpture at the Carrara Academy, Guidi held his first solo exhibition in 1956 in Florence, thanks to the support of Ottone Rosai. Some of his works were exhibited at the Hermitage Museum and in various museums at the request of the Italian Ministry of Foreign Affairs; one hundred of his drawings were donated to the Uffizi Gallery’s Department of Prints and Drawings; and some of his sculptures are held in collections such as Palazzo Pitti, the Galleria d’Arte Moderna (GAM) in Rome, the Sports Museum of Barcelona, and the Consejo Superior del Deportes in Madrid.
