author alberto salietti was born in ravenna on march 15, 1892, into a family of mural decorators—the son of painter silvio salietti and giulia orselli—and began his artistic training working with his father. He then attended the brera academy in milan until 1914, where he was a pupil of cesare tallone and mentessi. During the first world war, he interrupted his activity, which he resumed at the end of the conflict. From 1920, he participated in the venice biennale, subsequently winning the grand prize for painting (in 1942). He also participated in important international exhibitions: the international exhibition in barcelona (1929), budapest (1936), the carnegie institute exhibition in pittsburgh (1936), and the world's fair in paris (1937). Salietti was one of the founders of the novecento italiano movement, serving as its secretary. His works mainly range from landscapes to still lifes and portraits; they are present in italian and international public collections (rome, florence, milan, turin, berlin, zurich, moscow, paris, warsaw). He died in chiavari on september 19, 1961. After his death, numerous posthumous exhibitions were dedicated to his memory.
