Rosso Medardo

Bookmaker

By the very nature of Rosso's poetics, as the swift revelation of a state of mind that fleetingly condenses into a clot of matter, not defined and self-contained, but merely a dynamic support for light, a fragment was enough for the sculptor, a significant detail, usually the head. Very few, in fact, in his catalogue are the full figures or the compositions with several figures.
