Pulvirenti: Stampi
Softcover | 20.96 x 1.27 x 27.31 cm | 56 pp

Text in English and Italian
This volume presents Stampi, a series of works by Italian sculptor Giuseppe Pulvirenti (b.1956) realised between 1998 and 2000. These works are immaculately minimal abstractions that play with three-dimensional geometries, negative space, effects of light and surface and relationships to vessels and functionality.
The works of Giuseppe Pulvirenti (b.1956), freed from the solemnity that often weighs down a sculpture, demand to live beside us in the everyday. The artist has the ability to make the observer feel at ease because his works spontaneously descend from any kind of intimidating pedestal. Through the use of traditional sculptural material like iron, aluminium, and bronze, he stages reality by playing with forms and creating objects
that demonstrate their practical futility.
