Boetti was an Italian artist, known for his involvement in the Arte Povera movement. Boetti is possibly best known for his embroidered world maps. The artist changed his name by adding an ‘e’ in between his first and surname to allude to idea that he had not one, but two selves.

At the age of twenty, Boetti decided to move to Paris, where he studied engraving. Around the same time period Boeti married Annemarie Sauzeau, with whom he later had two children. In Paris, Boetti created a body of work form nontraditional materials including plaster, light fixtures, industrial supplies and plexiglass. Boetti continued to work alongside Italian artists and exhibited in Genoa with the Arte Povera group (povera meaning poor). Boetti was also an avid traveler who adventured to Afghanistan and Pakistan several times before the Soviet invasion of 1979.

Boetti left the Arte Povera group during the 1970s and began exhibiting as “Alighiero e Boetti”. The duality in his name was a reflection of the dualities he found in society, such as “order and disorder” or “mixed but not mixed”. Boetti also began collaborating with friends who were not necessarily artists, allowing them to work on his large pen drawings.

Boetti’s work and reputation spread internationally, during the 1970s and 80s. Boetti is now in major art collections around the world. Do you think you own a piece by Alighiero e Boetti? Contact us. We are the Boetti experts.
