Enrico Crispolti

One of the foremost exponents of post-war Milanese artistic tendencies

Gianni Dova was born in Rome in January 1925, but when he was sixteen his family moved to Milan, where he attended the Brera Art School starting in 1942. Here he met artists who frequented the literary cafés and who, among other points of reference, were avid readers of Corrente, the journal published by Ernesto Treccani.
