Footnotes:
Alberto Giorgi (born in 1947), an Italian jeweler and goldsmith, trained under the sculptor Edgardo Mannucci and is considered one of the leading figures of the Fano School. Active since the 1960s, at a time when kinetic art was revolutionizing established forms, he made geometry his own language, creating jewelry that resembles moving constellations and celestial landscapes, where pivots and joints mimic the movement of the stars. His creations are part of the collections at the Cooper Hewitt Museum in New York.
