Vittorio Fiorucci an Italian Canadian poster artist from Montreal Canada.  They say the art fo the fuge spring from being borned in ZaraYugoslavia from Itilian parents.   When Fiorucci was 19 he moved away becuase he was not getting along with his mother at time Montreal was opted so he took off.    He felt an artist had should be free indepedent in the fullest sense of the term.   He is the most famous poser artist.  Fiorucci posters have deck the walls of Montreal for over twenty years and has received many prizes for highly original work.

Fiorucci career began in the early 1960's his first job was a cartoonist in political publications; he then became a full time poser maker.  This is when he started becoming known.  In 1964 he won third prize in the Interantional Cineman poster exhibit in Czechoslovakia.  This was the first time Canada ever won a prize of that kind. 

The way he works is amazing.  When he is aked to do something he immediately has a mental picture of it and often it is the right picture.  His thing is to project his ideas and carry them out spontanouesly.  He does not study the results of his leisure because he will then start seeign mistakes, making changs and then becomes unsure of where he is going with his work.  Unfotunately, Fiorucci died of a stroke on July 30, 2008.
