Quinta Luce Production & Creativity

The fifth light, which amongst us is most fair,
doth breathe from such a love that all the world
below thirsts to have news of it:
within there is the lofty mind to which a wisdom so profound was granted, that, if truth be true,
no second ever rose such full vision.
(Dante, Divine Comedy, Paradise, Canto X)

Quinta Luce was born in Milan in 1999 from the meeting of professionals in the sector who have decided to join forces and skills to realize ideas and desires by applying in the field what, like many others, they have talked about with passion.
From our first meeting, even before we began thinking of joining forces to create a reality such as Quinta Luce, we discovered that we strongly believed in a shared thought ...
Ever since we founded Quinta Luce, having decided to join forces and objectives, our partnership has been a sharing our life experiences and our future in activities in which expressed our professional skills such as film production of both feature films and short films, documentaries, television productions, organization of large events, institutional communication projects, publishing and merchandising projects.
This variety of experiences and contexts has allowed us on the one hand to increase and diversify our skills but also to design and manage multi and transmedia projects. This direction can be defined as a natural disposition that also derives from the academic experiences of QuintaLuce S.r.l. ’s associates.
It ranges, in fact, from Alberto Bader’s degree in Communication at New York University - Bachelors of Fine Arts, Master in Film and Television - and Alessandro Savioli’s enrolment in the Scuola del Cinema di Milano - Milan’s Film School - (now Fondazione Milano - Civica Scuola di Cinema Luchino Visconti) and at the University Cattolica of Milan in the Advanced Screenwriters course and Story Editors Writing Techniques for Fiction.
The QuintaLuce experience is a guarantee of reliability and creative and organizational know-how. We proudly measure the duration of relationships with our customers and collaborators in terms of years, even if the market often requires spot interventions with a more limited approach.
We approach each new project respectfully, researching the junctures between the creative idea, technological feasibility and the real chances of success in the potential target market.

However, we are not supporters of novelty at any cost. The price of the novelty is paid, unfortunately and frequently, by improvisation.
Novelty that does interest us greatly, when we consider the wide scope of the development of a new project and the distribution of the next product, is the possibility of a renewed attention to the viewer / consumer.

The early 1930s were hard years that conceded nothing to hedonism. The first day of kindergarten Ezio Gribaudo was struck by the graffiti of a Pinocchio engraved on the school desk. The encounter with this attempt to give shape to the unshapely, creating beauty, took on the value of an event that enchanted him to the point of its becoming the pivotal point on which he then built his life.
In this documentary 90-year-old Gribaudo welcomes us into his studio, a Wunderkammer with large windows framing the Mole Antonelliana and the snow-capped Alps, overflowing with canvases, photographs, dinosaurs, aviaries, theaters of memory, pyramids and tools of the trade of a lifetime.
He tells us that there has never been a day in which his hands have not traced a drawing on paper, given life to a sculpture, a painting or created artifacts of all sorts; hands that have never ceased to be animated by the curiosity to experiment with techniques, materials, tools, to be engage for the simple taste for craftsmanship. His eyes still sparkle with the freshnes, playfulness and poetry of his first encounter with art. It is thanks to these traits that Gribaudo was able to conceive the enigma of the logogrifi and flani, saccogrifi and metallogrifi.

In his life he was bestowed with some of the greatest awards in the world, the XXXIII Venice Biennale (1966), IX National Quadrennial of Art in Rome (1965), IX Biennial of Sao Paulo in Brazil (1967). In 2003 he was awarded the Gold Medal of Cultural Merit, for his maturity as an artist and international fame, by the President of the Italian Republic, Carlo Azeglio Ciampi.

Today his works are exhibited in the most beautiful temples of art: MoMA in New York, Museum of Imagination in Hudson, NY, Peggy Guggenheim Collection and Ca 'Pesaro in Venice, Musée des Arts Decoratifs in Paris, Petit Palais Musée d'Art Moderne in Geneva, Kunstverein in Göttingen, Gallery of Modern Art in Rome, Accademia Albertina of Fine Arts and the National Museum of the Risorgimento in Turin.

From his early twenties, he always merged his artistic work with that of publisher, creating more than eighty monographs on the greatest achievements of twentieth-century art. He gave rise to a publishing house of significant relevance offering, for the first time to a wide audience of readers parched for life after years of cultural numbness, an opening on the most important artistic avant-gardes. He contributed to disseminating Italian excellence abroad, knocking on Abrahams' door in New York to propose the publication of the first book on Turin’s Egyptian Museum, a publishing masterpiece that has its roots in the best Italian savoir faire of Renaissance tradition.
All the major artists wanted to be part of his collection: Chagall, Miró, Moore, Max Ernst, Kandinsky, Bacon, de Chirico, Fontana and many others. In a few brushstrokes he carries us on the carousel of his encounters bringing to life astonishing memories.


Strolling through Turin he vehemently sculpts a portrait of a narrow city prone to power with which he has not wanted to identify. We follow him to Moncalieri and witness the unveiling of his latest work: a dinosaur engraved on the side of a stunning prototype by famed car designer Giorgetto Giugiaro: White on White. He becomes inflamed at the paradoxical rhetoric of ugly that informs so much contemporary art and enhances the saving function of beauty.
He assures us that the future is still full of promises.

Thus the singular story of an artist, who was able to shape his life to his vocation, widening his boundaries and possibilities to experience the world in a surprising manner, scrolls before our eyes. Viewing this documentary Gribaudo's legacy is in our hands: the shining example of a life constantly oriented toward what really animated it, the ability to continuously infuse it with new vital lymph and thus give it its fullest meaning.
