Augusto Murer was an Italian sculptor, painter and partisan. He was one of the most significant Italian sculptors of the second half of the twentieth century, with a wide artistic production linked to themes of civil commitment, but also in search of the profound meaning of the human experience. His first artistic training took place at the Ortisei art school. Decisive for his growth has been the meeting and the brief collaboration with Arturo Martini, in Venice, in the autumn of 1943. Despite the subsequent divergence of their artistic and cultural paths, Murer always recognized his debt to Martini in terms of the conquest of esthetic sense. Beginning in 1953, after an exhibition at the Cairola Gallery in Milan, Murer established himself as a national artist, thanks to the recognition of important critics, such as Orio Vergani, and established artists such as Renato Birolli. In the following years and throughout the period up to the 80s, along with success, important commissions for the construction of monuments and civil works reached Murer, in which his effective expressionist realism stands out.
