Ivan Zanoni
Cat in playful pose crafted in black wrough iron by Italian Master

2022

About the Item

An exquisite and highly tasteful sculpture, The Cat is one of the most recent artworks by the Italian master blacksmith Ivan Zanoni who has recently been put on display at MART, Museum of Modern Art in Rovereto (the most prominent in Italy), which has dedicated a significant exhibition to him. Ivan Zanoni has learned this rare activity from his father, Luciano, who, among other artworks, has sculpted a four-meter olive tree for Melinda and Bill Gates' foundation in Seattle. Ivan's artworks are inspired by nature; his artistic research represents animals' anatomy and their soul. All of his artworks are unique proofs made of wrought iron. The sculptor's works are also under commission. Ivan Zanoni was born in 1971 in Caldes in Val di Sole (TN). He still lives and works in the Easter Italian Alps. He attended the Art Institute "Alessandro Vittoria" in Trento. The eldest son of the sculptor Luciano learns the art of wrought iron by maturing a totally independent personal artistic expression. In 2004 he was part of a selection of "Artisans-artists" chosen to represent the Trentino Region in Japan.
