Professor Renzo Gulienetti (né Gulienetti von Oberkirch) (1929 - 2010) was an Italian surgeon of Italian Walser and German descent, cited particularly for his work in the field of plastic surgery and deformations.

Biography

Family

Renzo grew up in Rome, Tuscany and Milan, born to Adalberto Gulienetti von Oberkirch and Rosanna Schweiger. Adalaberto's father, Franz Josef, shared roots in Italy's Walser enclave in Campello Monti and Baden-Württemberg and was later knighted as Francesco Gulienetti for services to Italian business in 1902. Rosanna was daughter of noted Italian theatre and film actress Dina Galli) and Arturo Schweiger, a banker.

His parents were the last residential inhabitants of Villa Rospigliosi and the final proprietors of the undivided surrounding wine and olive producing estate in the province of Pistoia, both of which were in the Rospigliosi family since Gian Lorenzo Bernini was commissioned to build the villa by Pope Clement IX in 1668 (Schweiger family descendants still retain familial use of the original papal chapel since the villa changed hands in the 1990s).

The Gulienetti family's interests were primarily split between Adalberto's directorship of Montecatini Terme, in nearby Montecatini, and Gulieneti ownership of Janetti, a luxury goods company focused on jewellery and silverware. The Gulienettis' origins in the Walser enclave of Campello Monti and historic interests in local precious metal mines meant that the Gulienettis were longstanding jewellers, including Joseph Gulienetti's 1897 establishment of Gulienetti & Co in what was the City of London's Fore Street Avenue by Moorgate following his arrival in 1880. Although the Janetti brand did not survive past the 1970s, it was a particularly reputed and exclusive brand in the pre-WWII era. This was reflected in Gulienetti sisters' marriages to Sotirio Bulgari's sons, both of whom built the Bulgari company that their father established to the brand that we know today in the immediate post-WWII era. Leonilde Gulienetti married Giorgio Bulgari in 1932 (the year of Sotirio Bulgari's death) and Laura Gulienetti married Costantino Bulgari in the 1920s.

Early Life

Although Janetti showrooms were located in Rome, Capri, Florence and Milan, its focal point was its Rome showrooms on Via Condotti. This meant that Renzo spent much of his youth in Rome, where his family lived between Piazza Navona and Piazza del Popolo. This included during WWII and the period of the 1944 Ardeatine massacre by the occupying Nazis, where the teenage Gulienetti was playing with brother Francesco near Via Rassella where citizens were rounded up to contribute to those retributory executions. During that same period of heightened tension versus the occupying forces, the SS frequently accessed homes and detained inhabitants on any suspicion. During such an occurrence, Renzo, his brother Francesco and his father were briefly taken away and detained, where Gulienetti witnessed his bilingual father placate SS officers in German. This was a successful attempt to protect his family by exploiting "racial sympathy" in the minds of the Nazis who had detained them in custody.

Personal Life

In 1957 Gulienetti married Nicoletta Merzagora, daughter of President of Italian Senate Cesare Merzagora. Their marriage was attended by President Giovanni Gronchi of the Italian Republic. Although later annulled by the Vatican, they bore a daughter, Francesca Gulienetti Merzagora.

In 1969, Gulienetti married Dr. Agneta Nyrén, a medical doctor with a specialism in human kinetics and daughter of the Swedish artist Gosta Nyrén), whom he met whilst working in Sweden. They bore two daughters, Chiara and Anna Gulienetti.

Career

Career Influences

Despite this lineage, Gulienetti's father actively encouraged his sons not to go into the jewellery business (Adalberto sold his share of Janetti to other family shareholders in the 1960s). Renzo's own creative flair was greatly influenced and came out later in his subsequent choices of musical and then medical careers, the latter of which focused on sculpting the human form in cosmetic surgery.

Musical Career

The Gulienettis' roots in artistic production went beyond Janetti and his acute awareness of ancestors' design and trade of jewellery and silverware. The young Renzo was close to his grandmother, the actress Dina Galli, and made cameo appearances as a child in productions with her. Dina died in his arms in Rome in 1951, a moment that reverberated through Italy. This inspiration of performing arts in the childhood Renzo and his stage appearances with his grandmother proved a double edged sword.

As a young man, Renzo trained to a professional level as pianist. His teacher and mentor was Arturo Benedetti Michelangeli, Arthur Rubinstein

His cameo appearances in theatre productions as a child perhaps

Inspired by Dina Galli grandmother, who died in his arms.

Whilst, creativity inherent in music led to choice of Professor Gulienetti's subsequent career.
