An incredible season for algebraic geometry flourished in Italy between 1860, when Luigi Cremona was assigned the chair of Geometria Superiore in Bologna, and 1959, when Francesco Severi published the last volume of the treatise on algebraic systems over a surface and an algebraic variety.

Gilberto Bini got his Ph.D. from Scuola Normale Superiore in July 2000. After that, he spent the following four years in the US (University of Michigan) and in the Netherlands (Universiteit van Amsterdam). He became a "Ricercatore di Geometria" at the Università degli Studi di Milano in 2004. In 2015, he started his job as an associate professor for Università degli Studi di Milano where he worked until 2019. The year afterwards, he moved to the Università degli Studi di Palermo where he started his job as a full professor of Geometry. His main research interests focus on projective geometry, especially the classification of complex projective varieties, as well as its application to Grassmann tensors and Computer Vision. He authored various peer-reviewed publications (proceedings, papers, books) on international journals. Through the years, he has organised different outreach activities (exhibitions, laboratories, public lectures, etc.). From 2015 until 2021, he was an editorof "Matematica, Cultura e Società", journal of the Unione Matematica Italiana. Last year, he co-organised with Claudio Fontanari the INdAM Workshop "Italian Algebraic Geometry between Tradition and Future".
