François Zille is the proud son of a miner-cook-pastry chef from Friuli and a seasonal rice winnower from Ferrara.
Since childhood he was constrained to the cult of language, of dialectics and excellence in order to survive as the son of Italian immigrants in postwar France.
Meaning that he had to daily auto-shape a solid and mutant identity.
Thanks to God, he was encouraged in this by design and creative Italic vein.
And by his innate vocation to irreverence and rebellion, enriched by a very early encounter with San Francesco, Voltaire, Francois Rabelais,
Antoine de Saint Exupéry and Frédéric Dard.
The acquired expertise of Visual Anthropologist is a happy consequence of the polio contracted at age eleven and a half, since he was forced to imagine and visualize the food on the walls of his room in Hôpital de la Croix Rousse in Lyon (1958-1959).
The objective of this propitious rite was to exorcise the frustrations of his taste buds deprived of direct contact with the food because, for many months, he was fed only with a nasal gastric tube.
Since then, FZ tends to express the strong hermeneutic and psycho-philosophical tension that characterizes him by the use of a logo-iconic language original and surprising, unique in the academic-professional-artistic realm.
And his “Vignettes Psycho-Philosophiques” have shown in the field to have a high empathic impact, neo-cognitive and didactic-formative.
François Zille began his professional career in 1963 as a Liftier at the Grand Hotel Continental in Via Manzoni in Milan, at the time renowned hotel of the stars of the Teatro alla Scala.
Where he had the good fortune to meet and dialogue with mythical people such as Jean Villard, founder of TNP Théâtre National Populaire de Paris and of legendary Avignon Theatre Festival, Giorgio De Chirico, the cofather 2 of the metaphysical movement, theatre actor Tino Buazzelli, and the great film star and intellectual Gian Maria Volonté.
Entered by chance in advertising in 1967, shortly after Pia De Fazio and Bob Elliott hired him as their junior copywriter to work “in Agency (CPV Kenyon & Eckart Rome 1969, Alitalia’s New Logo & Refounding Campaign “Dimensions ’70”).
Between 1969-70 transits to J. Walter Thompson of Milan with Anna Scotti, before Luigi Montaini “enlists” him peremptorily in the pioneering Milanese Advertising Agency Troost-Staff, where Luigi was successfully introducing in Italy the Modern Anglo-Saxon New Paradigm of Creativity in Advertising: a story that lasted without recurrence for over 45 years.
With a very strong impression left by the mentoring of transversal & systemic Masters such as Gregory Bateson, Fritjof Capra, Krishnamurti, Osho, Marshal Mc Luhan, Paul Wazlawitz, Ionesco, Jean Cocteau, Jean Guitton, Hugo Winkler, Mircea Eliade, Ernst Gombrich, Bill Bernbach, David Ogilvy, Armando Testa, Lévy-Strauss, Bachelard, Lorenz, Popper, Roland Barthes, Ettore Sottsas, James Lovelock, Thorvald Dethlefsen, Edgar Morin, Gillo Dorfles, Alessandro Mendini, Umberto Eco, Noam Chomsky, Jerry A. Fodor, Richard Sennett, Piatelli-Palamarini and the Dalai Lama.
And a vibrant systemic expansion of its sphere of activity with the opening of the academic-artistic front. FZ has lived for work and for his studies in Philosophy of the Tradition, Comparative Religions & Cosmogonies, Anthropology, Anthroposophy, Psycho-Sociology of Complex Societies and Spatial Archeology in Spain, Portugal, Bolivia, Brazil, Argentina, Galapagos Islands Ecuador, Dominican Republic, Haiti, Colombia, USA, Chile and China.
A pioneer and neo-utopian innovator freed from any form of subjection from the establishment, FZ has linked his name to a long series of records of which we here mention only five amongst the most poetic and intriguing…
: together with Luigi Ciccognani and Marco Carozzi has designed the first advertising campaign with a Comparative Hermeneutics approach (Moskovskaya Vodka, Ogilvy & Mather Milan, 1973)
: with L. Ciccognani designed the first “silent” & ecological commercial “carrosello” (historical Italian evening TV advertising format, Amaro Averna, AdMarco Florence, 1975)
: always with L. Ciccognani was the first publisher of avant-garde Art to introduce a work of Body-Art (Gunther Brus, the leader of Viennese Actionism ‐ Flexus Movement, Michelangelo-inspired Body Sculptural Performance simulating an epileptic attack “Ana”, dedicated to his Mother, also commented by Lea Vergine/L’Espresso, Milan 1970)
: for Slamp has designed “Scripta Braille”, the first lamp conceived for the blind, by now “historical” and in use in Catania-Sicily at the “Polo Multimediale per Disabili Visivi” and in other advanced Multimedial Visual Disability Centers (Rome, 2007)
: has conceived & realized for MISIAD Milanosiautoproducedesign, a new Fuorisalone Event designed by Alessandro Mendini in the context of the 2012 Milano’s Salone Internazionale del Mobile, “HOMO SYSTEMIX”, a provocative and “elevationary” Art-Design Socio-Anthropo Sculpture inspired from Leonardo’s “Uomo di Vitruvio”.
