Alberto Garutti

Alberto Garutti was born in Galbiate (Lc) in 1948. He lives and works in Milan. His search for an open dialogue between work of art, spectator and public space, has earned him the invitation to make works for cities and museums all over the world. Garutti has executed permanent public works that are capable of bringing about relationships and links between public and private institutions and the city’s social fabric. In 2000 he made one of his best-known works in Bergamo, Ai nati oggi, which lights up the street lights of Piazza Dante every time a child is born at the local hospital.
