Piludu

Ferruccio "Ferro" Piludu (Milano 1930 - Pescina 2011), graphic designer and illustrator, has worked with many companies and institutions since the sixties, including: RAI, Radiotelevisione Della Svizzera Italiana, Alitalia, Olivetti, Fiat, Pfizer, RCA, Vallardi, European Community, IFAD and numerous collaborative learning projects in collaboration with the municipalities of Rome and Turin. He has designed opening titles, animations and experimental films, including the iconic dove for "lunedifilm" RAI, which has indelibly marked the imagination of at least three generations. In 1970, he founded the Gruppo Artigiano Ricerche Visive that would become an influential graphic studio for almost three decades and a melting pot for the Roman cultural scene.  Some of his work has been presented at the museum of Modern Art in New York, Triennale in Milan, International Design Zentrum in Berlin and at major film festivals.
