Born 1954 Licciana Nardi in the province of Massa-Carrara (Tuscany).
In 1960 commences in earnest his artistic activities prevelantly
dedicated to visual art. In 1961 becomes an active participant of

During these early years of the Sixties involves himself in
experimental research of photography and 8mm film. In 1963 produces
several stage designs for the Civic Theatre in La Spezia. Is invited
to join the “Promotrice di Belle Arti Di Torino” which is an
associate of the international Cultural Exchange in Rome. Is the
founder-member of the group “ArteGrottesca” linking the cities of
Pisa and Milan. In 1965 moves to Paris and frequents the studios of
several artists, one of whom is the noted Abstractist Folmer. From
