Scuola Scultura – Contacts & Location
Description
Since 2005, the school of sculpture and painting, and special school has been established.
Brief history since the opening of the School of Sculpture in Villa Luganese, from 2005 to 2016,
For many years I had been keeping a "dream" in my drawer,
the opening of a School of sculpture and painting,
but it has always been very difficult to find a suitable location, partly because of the high rent and operating costs.
Finally in 2005 I found a venue for this Sculpture School project of mine in Villa Luganese, in a new structure built and owned by Mr. and Mrs. Raffaele Zamblera and Mr. and Mrs. Oliviero Ghirlanda, with whom a friendly collaboration was immediately established, the structure is located right under the majestic "Denti della Vecchia" where as a boy I was a shepherd of sheep and goats and where I began to paint my first small paintings, with the Great fortune of having met Pepo Frigerio, grandson of the Great painter Ambrogio Preda and Ugo Moglia, whom I met in 1954 during their extemporaries, in the Logo area in Sonvico with Ugo Moglia and at the Alpe Valà, above Cadro, with my friend Pepo Frigerio, from whom I received a lot of advice while also trying to find my own way as a " young canvas painter." We were back in 1954-1955, ( how much water has passed under the bridge ).
To adapt the spaces in the new in Villa Luganese, for the teaching rooms and the formation of the warehouse, I also created a department to display the works on the second floor, also adapted and specifically to accommodate disabled users and schoolchildren, for all the transformation and organization to furnish the infrastructure, with working tools, special tables for
disabled people, facilitating their entry with wheelchairs to other special equipment, for opening and entry into operation we worked for c.a. 16 months, with the help of relatives and friends.
For the onerous financial commitment, I involved my family, helping me to realize this dream of mine, of course I realized early on that it would not be possible for me to maintain it alone with my maybes, so in 2005 I sent letters to Canton Ticino, Dip. Fin. Promovimento Economico, to the Ente Regionale Valli di Lugano, to the Municipalities, of Lugano, Sonvico and other neighboring municipalities, ( now part of Greater Lugano ), to Banking Institutions, to foundations, to insurance companies and private and public associations, to friends and acquaintances, introducing them to my project of Sculpture School and Special School for disabled persons and Special School students, asking them if they would be willing to help me financially for the conduct of the school, with my " Motto ", I offer my work to those who help me.
In early 2006, I received responses of support from the first promoters of the project :
from Mr., Giovanni Crameri, Dir. Reg. UBS Ticino Region ( now retired ),
by Mr. and Mrs., Bruno and Angela Piaggi, Savre Firm in Mezzovico,
by Mr., Luigi Nicoli, Ing.dipl.Eur.Reg A-Sia-Otia. Melano,
by Mr., Germano Alberti ( deceased in 2014 ),
by Mr., Battista Ghiggia Avv. with legal support and audits.
This significant support immediately enabled me to have a more peaceful running and planning of the School with the setting up of the premises.
from 2007 to 2016, they supported the project :
The Lugano Valleys Region, dir. Corrado Piattini,
The Canton Ticino, Dip.Fin. & Economic Promotion,
The Lod. City Hall of Lugano,
.The municipalities of : Bissone, Collina D'Oro, Cadro, Curio, Bioggio, Orselina, Massagno, Canobbio, Sonvico, Cadenazzo, Isone, Torricella-Taverne,
Exhibition in the Municipal Hall of Cadenazzo, with Friend Edgardo Rezzonico ( deceased in 2014 ), with his daughter Claudia, recognizing in my person as an artist, the expression of culture in the service of the less favored, they invited me to exhibit the works of Liliana Rezzonico ( deceased in 2009 ), Edgardo's wife and Claudia's mother and my fellow painter, donating the proceeds of the exhibition to the project,
