Biography
Group NP2 (1962-1988)
The « Gruppo NP2 », of which Nerone Ceccarelli is one of the founders, was created around 1962.
Its members were Giovanni Ceccarelli (known as Nerone), Gianni Patuzzi, Luigi Marchisotti, Dedalo Montali, Jolanda Novi, Lucia Petrocchi, Virgilio Petrocchi and Raoul Portale.
These artists had joined forces and tried, in the search for harmony and functionality, to find in a new plastic and artistic creation a modern definition to marry art and architecture both interiors and exteriors.
In the years 1974 and 1975, Gianni Patuzzi left the NP2 Group, but Nerone transformed the company into an individual company GRUPPO NP2/NERONE and continued operating in the sector until 1988.
