Fabrizio Clerici (Milan, 1913 – Rome, 1993) was an Italian painter and graphic artist.
Clerici was a complex and eclectic artist, as well as an architect, costume designer, set designer and photographer.
In 1920 his family moved to Rome, where he graduated in architecture in 1937. As a student he attended Le Corbusier's conferences in Rome. In 1936 he became friends with Alberto Savinio, who introduced him to surrealism. In the late 1930s he moved to Milan, where he came into contact with Giorgio de Chirico, and devoted himself to both architecture and drawing.
In 1947, Clerici made his debut as a set designer. The following year, he took part in the Venice Biennale for the first time. There, he met Salvador Dalí and designed sets and costumes for Igor Stravinsky's Orpheus, which was performed at the Teatro La Fenice.
Clerici settled in Rome in 1949, where he expanded his activities as a set designer and participated in exhibitions at the Museum of Modern Art in New York and the Carnegie Institute in Pittsburgh. Between 1974 and 1985 he produced a series of paintings and drawings inspired by Arnold Böcklin's famous painting 'The Isle of the Dead'.
His work has been exhibited in many museums in the United States, including the MoMA and the Guggenheim Museum, and in France, such as the Centre Pompidou.
