Lorenzo Marini (born 1958, Monselice) is an Italian creative director, author, and artist.
After obtaining his degree in architecture in Venice in 1980, [1] Marini worked with a number of Italian advertising agencies: Ogilvy, Leo Burnett, Canard and Gruppo Armando Testa. [2] In 1997 in Milan he founded Lorenzo Marini & Associati, [3] an agency with branches in Milan and Turin and which in 2010 opened an office in New York. [4]
In his career as an art director, Marini has received over 500 awards in Italy and internationally [5] [6] , including the Lion d’Or at the Cannes International Advertising Festival for his campaign for Agnesi pasta in 1985. [7] A multidisciplinary artist, [8] over the years Marini has made inroads in many branches of the arts: drawing cartoons, [9] directing, painting [10] and particularly writing, with the publication of several works of non-fiction and two novels, [11] one of which has been translated into English.
For Italy’s RAI 2 radio station, he has presented “Il giorno della marmotta” (“Groundhog Day”), a program about creativity, together with Dario Vergassola. [12]
Marini’s art career was mentored by Emilio Vedova, after completing his degree in architecture from the University of Venice. Only in 2010 did Marini begin exhibiting his artworks to the public. The first exhibitions were held in New York and Miami, and he also participated at Art Basel Miami. In 2016 at the Palazzo della Permanente in Milan he unveiled “Type Art”, a movement of which Marini is the founder and which in 2017 he exhibited at the 57th Biennale Arte in Venice (at the Armenia Pavilion).
In 2017 Marini was conferred with the Pubblicità nell'Arte award, an award introduced at the 11th NC Awards[13].
Marini has created the logo and branding for Lavazza Espression, Galleria Borghese, Conai, Lux Vide, Fastweb, Novamont, Spuma Di Sciampagna, Eicma, Oltremare, Faac, Agnesi, and Zucchi[14].
Since 2019 he has collaborated with Cramum and Sabino Maria Frassà: the AlphaCUBE installation presented for DesignWeek 2019 (by Ventura Projects) was exhibited in Venice (for the 58th Biennale Arte), Dubai and finally in Los Angeles.
In 2020 in Los Angeles, Marini received the Mobius Advertising Award in an international competition for creativity, for the new alphabet of his creation, Futurtype[15].
In the same year, he presented his new cycle of works titled "Typemoticon" for his personal exhibition "Out of Words" at Gaggenau Hub in Milan.
In September 2020 he designed the Manifesto for the Venice Pavilion at the Venice Biennale, titled Aperture Straordinarie ("Extraordinary Openings")[16].
In 2020, at the end of the lockdown period in Italy during the COVID-19 health emergency, Marini created an artistic event in the main cities of Italy with dynamic and static installations, welcoming residents and workers back to those cities. In these installations Marini’s liberated alphabets are a metaphor for people coming together once again.
TypeArt is an art movement founded by Marini that celebrates the aesthetic beauty of letters [13] .
In 2021 Marini received the AVI award for the most visited exhibition in Italy of contemporary art, Di Segni e Di Sogni ("Of Signs and of Dreams"), at the Santa Maria della Scala museum complex in Siena[18].

He is the founder of Solstizio Project, in collaboration with the European Union and developed in different Countries of the world. Stampone collaborates with various universities as the Accademia delle Belle Arti di Urbino where he teaches "Tecniche e Tecnologie delle Arti Visive" IULM of Milan, the Federico II University of Naples and the McLuhan Program in Culture and Technology of Toronto.

Alik Cavaliere was an Italian sculptor. He spent his life researching the meaning of life, freedom, nature, and history.

Neither he followed any art movements of his times, although he knew all of them and was temporarily influenced by some. He strove along his own way, narrating his perceptions with witty irony, through sculptures made up of a wide range of materials, disposed in a chaotic labyrinth which visitors are forced to traverse without being able to find a definitive point of view.
