AI-assisted summary
Description from the seller
Arnaldo Pomodoro was born in Montefeltro in 1926, and spent his childhood and training in Pesaro. Since 1954 he has lived and worked in Milan. His works of the Fifties are bas-reliefs in which a singular, unprecedented 'writing' emerges in sculpture, interpreted in various ways by the leading critics. In the early Sixties he confronted tridimensionality and developed research into the forms of solid geometry: spheres, discs, pyramids, cones, columns, cubes — in polished bronze — that are ripped apart, corroded, dug into their interiors, with the aim of breaking their perfection and discovering the mystery contained within. The formal contrast between the smooth perfection of the geometric form and the chaotic complexity of the interior will henceforth be a constant in Pomodoro's production.
Emblematic and very rare for the master’s oeuvre, the visual and technical quality employed for the work is of exceptional level.
The edition number may not correspond to the number shown in the photograph.
The provenance of the work is from Galleria Grafica Manzoni, which issues its certificate of authenticity.
