Italian Mid-Century Ceramic Vase in Etruscan Style in by Mariano Pieroni 1950s Conical ceramic vessel with a pronounced, straight rim. The color is dark brown-red and the graphic decoration around the rim is worked in a rich sand tone. The surface is rough and textured, but glazed, which gives the object a special appeal. This decorative object has an Etruscan character and was crafted by M. Pieroniin 1955-56 in Faenza at the Istituto d'arte Faenza. Mariano Pieroni was born in Barga (Lucca) on June 17, 1937. He lives and works in Solbiate Arno (Varese). An ideologist of the "Dimensionismo" movement, he was a member of historic groups in the Lombardy area: "LIBERI ARTISTI DEL VARESOTTO" (LADPDV), i Besnatesi, Porta Ticinese, Centro documentazione Arte Varese, "Tectores Errantes," and "Dimensionismo." From 1952 to 1966, he lived in Florence and attended the studios of Rosai, Grazzini, and Conti, and the free school of nude art at the Academy of Fine Arts directed by Giorgio Settala. He became a student of Silvio Polloni and, in 1953-54, of Pietro Annigoni. His mentors also included Ugo Seravalle (his first teacher) and Emanuele Zambini (a renowned sculptor). He met the great Italian-American artist Agostino Nivola during the summer of 1950 and studied under him at Villa Pozzolini in Quercianella. Early training in figurative art, he moved on to informal art, adopting various techniques such as collage and frottage, after studying nude painting...

Fantastique African Dogon tribal bronze figure “Mother with Child,” Burkina Faso, 1970s The heavy figure shows a dynamic representation of a mother in motion with her toddler in her arms. The object is so appealing because it has been elongated and the legs, arms, and headdress are exaggerated. The ribbed headdress is central, and there are also large earrings and a loincloth. The casting is very detailed and finely crafted. Due to its weight and size, we have mounted the object on an acrylic base. Dimensions of the figure: W 18cm x D 6cm x H 69cm Bronze figures associated with the Dogon people mainly originate from Mali and Burkina Faso. The Dogon are known for their cosmogony and religious rituals, which are reflected in their art. Dogon bronzes...
