Émile Gilioli (Paris 1911 -1977) is a French sculptor. He is one of the representatives of French abstract sculpture of the 1950s. In 1947, he exhibited at the Salon des réalités nouvelles in Paris. In 1966, he created the fresco (red, black and white mosaic with geometric patterns) in the entrance hall of the building "Le Périscope", avenue d'Italie, Paris 13th. In 1997, for the 20th anniversary of his death, the municipality decided to acquire Émile Gilioli's house and studio, thus responding to the wish expressed by Babet Gilioli, his wife, to create a place in memory of the artist. In 2004, the studio-house was transformed into a museum-library which now houses a permanent exhibition retracing his work. In 1997, the Musée Maillol organized an exhibition in his honor from February 27 to May 15 in Paris.
