HUGO PRATT POET AND PIRATE
MICHA CHRISTOS
Born in Rimini by chance in 1927, Hugo Pratt, an international Venetian, received in his cradle the genes of travel, mystery and poetry.
A grandfather of Anglo-French origins and a grandmother from Turkey who is passionate about cinema and drawing, give him his globetrotting genius DNA. But it is his other grandfather; a Sephardic Jew, who emigrated from Spain to Venice, a famous chiropodist and poet in his time that transmitted his love for the words and the images they inspire.
