Patrizia Vicinelli
Patrizia Vicinelli (Bologna, 23 August 1943 – 9 January 1991) was an Italian poet, writer, artist and actress.[1][2]
Vincinelli was born in Bologna, where she grew up. She enrolled at the University of Bologna with the ambition to become a Literare Professor but never completed her studies.[2] In the early 1960s, she started performing sound poetry and concrete poetry. In 1966, she attended a conference held in La Spezia by the avant-garde literary group Gruppo 63 and was later invited to become a member.[1][3]
She contributed to literary magazines such as Alfabeta, Doc(k)s, Marcatré, Ex and Quindici.
Her work in experimental theatre and contemporary music brought her to collaborate with poets and writers such as Emilio Villa, Adriano Spatola and Franco Beltrametti.
She also performed in avant-garde films such as In viaggio con Patrizia (1965) and Virulentia (1967) by Alberto Grifi; La Notte e il giorno by Gianni Castagnoli (1967); and Toxic Love by Claudio Caligari (1983).
Vicinelli died in Bologna in 1991.[3]
