Lele Luzzati Foundation ETS

The Lele Luzzati Foundation was established in Genoa in 2017 by its founder and promoter, Sergio Noberini. It serves as the principal institution dedicated to preserving, promoting and enhancing the artistic legacy and collections of Emanuele Luzzati. The Foundation was created from the body of works entrusted to Noberini by Luzzati’s heirs, together with the special legal authority to safeguard the Master’s name and intellectual property rights.

The Foundation’s cultural mission is rooted in the Emanuele Luzzati Archive, its original core and principal heritage, from which all activities related to research, conservation, enhancement and dissemination of the Master’s work originate. The Foundation manages a dynamic cultural heritage that connects collections belonging to theatres, foundations and private collectors, promoting exhibitions, educational initiatives, publishing projects and performing arts programmes in Italy and abroad.

The Lele Luzzati Foundation – ETS is a non-profit participatory foundation, registered in the Italian National Register of the Third Sector (RUNTS) since 2026 and recognised as a legal entity by the Liguria Regional Authority in 2022. Its objectives are to:

• promote and organise initiatives aimed at increasing knowledge and appreciation of Emanuele Luzzati’s cultural, artistic, scenographic, theatrical and literary heritage, while fostering a broader interest in culture, the arts and the performing arts;
• support and promote research into and understanding of the applied arts, particularly graphic design, scenography and animated cinema;
• organise exhibitions, cultural events, conferences, research projects, publications and educational and outreach activities relating to the Master’s work, also in collaboration with public institutions and organisations;
• establish awards, scholarships and research fellowships;
• foster partnerships with scientific, cultural and educational institutions to facilitate access to their collections and resources, supporting the Foundation’s research, meetings and conferences.

The Lele Luzzati Foundation is responsible for the management of Casa Luzzati.

The Foundation’s new Board of Directors, elected by the Assembly of Supporting Members in April 2026, is chaired by Andrea Basevi Gambarana, a distinguished cultural figure whose long-standing friendship with both Maestro Luzzati and Sergio Noberini was founded on mutual esteem and shared values. The Board also includes Gianfranco Noferi, Ambrogio Novelli, Roberto Stasio and Giuseppe Veruggio.
