This website is a grass-root initiative by a group of friends of Gianfranco Domenighetti, following his death in November 2017. The so called “Dome’s friends group” encompasses individuals who were able to appreciate Gianfranco in a multitude of domains, mainly within professional settings.
In September 2018 an event called “Remembering Dome” was organized in Locarno. While depicting his professional activity, it focused mainly on his lesser known artistic traits, by displaying his paintings and photographs. The catalog of said exhibition acted as a guide to this website, which is further enriched by some professional aspect of Gianfranco Domenighetti’s accomplishments.
The website highlights his many-sidedness thus reaching the purpose for which it was designed – to ensure that Gianfranco Domenighetti’s important creative and scientific output won’t be lost in time, but rather will remain available to the public, especially to future generations.
