Source-derived summary

Sandro Luporini (born 12 July 1930) is a painter, lyricist and Italian writer. He is also a member of the Metacosa Movement.

Biography

As an athlete he played in the Sailing Viareggio, together with his brother Francesco Luporini, before the Serie A and then the national basketball team.

Luporini was born in Viareggio, Italy. In 1953 he studied engineering at the University of Pisa leaving studies to paint and move to Rome. In 1956 he was in Milan and participated in several exhibitions together with the painters of the Bergamini Gallery, taking part in the events of existential realism. She lives in the same neighborhood as a young songwriter: Giorgio Gaber. Between the two, after the casual acquaintance in the bar they both attended, a friendship began soon in artistic collaboration: the two write together the lyrics of the plays and the theatrical performances while Gaber interprets.

The first collaboration between the two is, however, for a song played in 1961 by Maria Monti, Sono the ninth, which the singer presents on the record as "written by a friend of mine, describing Milan just as he would represent a painter"; In the back cover the author's surname is incorrectly reported as Luparini.

His pictorial activity continues: Luporini exposes paintings in the most important national shows, obtaining awards and prizes.

Critical limits

The source lead contains qualifying language; that uncertainty should survive quotation, summary and reuse. Authority statements aid reconciliation but still require their own references, qualifiers and ranks to be checked.
