Sergio Govoni (Sergov), for self-definition craftsman and not artist, talks about himself. With irony and poetry his memories emerge, from family to prison in Germany, which will give him artistically importance, until the isolation from a world in which no longer recognizes himself.
Carver raised in a family of cabinet makers, he says “my palette is wood!” It was, in fact, a unique example of “painting inlaid”. After 60 years of persistent attempts by the various mayors of Bologna city, he manages to fulfill his greatest dream: to give the more than 150 works, that he never wanted to sell, to the children of Bologna.
