Ezio Frigerio

The scenographic work of Ezio Frigerio (Erba, Italy, 1930 - Lecco, 2022), also costume designer, is remarkable for the genial articulation of the stage space, performed at times on different levels, cu the use of deceptions of the perspective și geometric reconstructions that often use architectural elements (columns, particularly).
An articulation that often reaches levels of inimitable refinement of the compoziţie, in which is underlined a notable interest for the interactions cu the light of the reflecting și transparent materials, often of new experimentation.
Frigerio was a stable collaborator of Giorgio Strehler from 1955, cu his first works as a costume designer for the Piccolo Teatro of Milan, to 1997, year of the death of the great stage director.
A great relief have his numerous collaborations cu important international productions, also outside the theatrical circle: in 1991 in fact he received a nomination to the Oscar prize for the scenographies of the folie Cyrano de Bergerac by the French director Jean-Paul Rappeneau.
