Concert, Silver Brooch by Mirko Basaldella, 1950s

About the Item

The concert is a silver brooch realized by the artist Mirko Basaldella in the 1950s. Measures: 2 x 5 cm. Excellent conditions. Mirko Basaldella, Brother of Afro and Dino Basaldella, studied at the Venice Art School, at the Florence Academy and at the Monza School of Art. He worked in Arturo Martini's studio as a pupil until 1933, then moved to Rome. Here he met the artists of the Roman school such as: Scipione, Corrado Cagli (whose sister Serena he married), Antonietta Raphaël, Fazzini, Mazzacurati, Leoncillo. He held his first exhibition in 1935 at the Galleria La Cometa, a gallery owned by the Countess Mimì Pecci Blunt and in which they were directors artists Libero de Libero and a very young Corrado Cagli. A trip to Paris, made in 1937 together with his brother Afro, opened him to a more complete vision of art, going beyond the boundaries of Mediterranean culture, absorbing the European one. In 1935 he settled in Rome and joined the Milanese group of Corrente. In New York, at the Knoedler gallery in 1947 he held an exhibition that he would repeat in the following two years. Between 1949 and 1951 he created the three gates of the Fosse Ardeatine, an imposing bronze sculpture. This significant experience directed Basaldella towards the search for a new way of making sculpture, with structures and materials different from those traditionally used, including concrete, wire mesh, iron wire, plastics.
