100 anni fa nasceva Nuvolo. Ecco chi era l’artista partigiano che firmava col nome di battaglia
Giorgio Ascani, known by his partisan nickname Nuvolo, was born 100 years ago in Città di Castello, Italy. He adopted the name during the Resistance at age 17, inspired by his ability to appear and disappear like a cloud. Nuvolo became a painter and taught at the Accademia di Belle Arti di Perugia, serving as director from 1979 to 1984. His works are held in museums and collections worldwide. In 2025, a major exhibition curated by Bruno Corà, Aldo Iori, and Paolo Ascani was held at Palazzo Collicola in Spoleto, and in 2018, New York's Galleria Di Donna mounted a retrospective curated by Germano Celant. Now, the fair AMAB in Assisi joins centenary celebrations with 15 works spanning his career, including pieces from the Genesi cycle, Serotipie, and OIGROIG series.
