Silvio Galizia

Silvio Galizia (August 5, 1925, in Muri AG – November 28, 1989, in Rome) was a Swiss architect and artist.

He gained his first professional experience in Zurich, Basel and Geneva.

Here he first worked in Riccardo Morandi's studio, soon became self-employed and developed a lively planning and construction activity, mainly church buildings and other buildings for religious orders.

[1] From 1960 his artistic activity also included the design of the stained glass windows and mosaics, the altars and sculptures, the furniture and the other facilities.

In addition to his architectural works, he left behind an extensive oeuvre of pictures, drawings, etchings (portraits, landscapes and still lifes), collages and plastic works.
