He was a pupil of the painter  Contard Barbieri  and of the sculptor Gianni Remuzzi , whose studio he also attended for several years. In the  1941  he was drafted into the Air Force as assistant engineer. On the Mediterranean front he obtained the cross for military valor. In July  1942 , during a short license-award, he obtained his artistic maturity diploma in Milan at the Brera art school. In December of the same year, he married Franca Petténi, daughter of  Julian  ( 1894  -  1930 ), poet and writer, with whom he had three children Pierfranco, Gabriella and Silvia. In May of  1943  was taken prisoner in  Africa  by the Anglo-Americans and transferred to the  United States .

In addition to his pre-eminent activity in the public and monumental field, he willingly worked on free subjects for personal pleasure or on subjects linked to the great problems of the contemporary world. He drew intensely giving the most exact and most spontaneously free measure of his creative abilities, often fixing the preparatory studies of the works that he was then gradually creating in marble or bronze with incisive and vibrant strokes.
