Born in 1941 in Florence, Bruno Vivoli studied engraving under Romano Calamai and Marcello Sacchi.
In 1965-1970, Vivoli worked in Australia; in 1972-1974 in New York, America.
He has
participated
in exhibitions at Santa Croce, San Frediano and, most recently, in the
exhibition held this November, 2001, by the artists of the Repubblica
di
San Procolo, in honour of Fioretta Mazzei, in the English Cemetery’s
Gatehouse,
Piazzale Donatello 38, 50132 Florence.
Bruno
Vivoli’s
engraving of Dante teaching the Commedia to Florence is used as
the logo to the international congresses held in Florence, 2001, 2002,
2004, The City and the Book.
An artist from Norway has printed Bruno Vivoli’s engravings of the Madonna and Child at the Santa Reparata International School of Art, Via San Gallo, Florence.
Then Bruno engraved the Madonna of the Badia Giotto altarpiece now in the Uffizi, of which this is Number 10 of a numbered series of 50. Again, these sell for €100/$100, the proceeds of these prints going towards buying a printing press for the printing of engravings to be situated in the studio room of the Biblioteca e Bottega Fioretta Mazzei.
