In the 70’s/80’s cultural and photographic environment Giulio Cerocchi (Milano, 1952) finds his personal and original way to express his own creativity and knowledge. His professional experience is enriched by the meetings with the milanese world of journalism (La Notte), the alternative magazines (Re Nudo, Il Male) and also the world of theater for the Assessorato Cultura e Spettacolo di Milano (Teatro dell’Elfo, Piccolo Teatro, Maurice Bejart Ballet, Teatro di Lindsay Kemp). As a freelancer he faces other more specific experiences in the world of fashion publishing (leather goods) until, few years later, he reaches his own personal and creative working space. This is the period of his professional maturity when he starts his collaboration with the most famous Italian fashion magazines (Amica, Grazia, Vogue Pelle, Mipel, Bazaar Italia, Idea Pelle, Impuls Germania) and with advertising agencies for national and international campaigns : Pollini, Ciesse Piumini, Juventus, Moda, Seteria Ratti, Mont Blanc, Monrif, Pelliccerie Solleciti, Raffaella Curiel. For several years he also gives his collaboration and contribution to the realization of the animation settings with Gruppo Ottanta ( inventors and animators of puppets like Five, Four and Uan for Mediaset T.V. ). Then, in the 90’s he leaves Milano to pursue a new creative project, other than photography, and moves to Maremma (Tuscany). Unfortunately the project doesn’t give the expected results, so Giulio Cerocchi goes back to his first love, photography. The land of Maremma enhances Giulio’s creativity offering new stimula and emotions with his harsh beauty. He is now fully involved in a personal research inspired by the cultures and popular symbologies and by the mysterious and surrelealistic atmospheres of the nature. He is currently engaged in the graphic and photographic drawings up, photographic etchings and new digital technologies. Now Giulio conceives and carries out graphic editorial projects to increase the true value of the environment and the culture of the beautiful land of Maremma (Tuscany). Contamination between two-dimensionality of photography and the third dimension of real objects is the strong point of his most recent works: Coesistenze pacifiche e Il silenzio della parola, il rumore della carta are recently exhibited at the Teatro Parenti in Milan. www.giuliocerocchi.net
