About the Item

Ceramic plate designed and produced by Sandro Cherchi, Albisola 1950s. Signed. Unique piece. Biography Sandro Cherchi (Genoa, 1911 – Turin, 1998) was an Italian sculptor. Many of his works are in the Fortunato Calleri Museum in Catania. After completing his high school studies at the "D'Oria" classical high school in Genoa, he then attended the Accademia Ligustica in Genoa, a city that experienced a splendid cultural season between the end of the nineteenth century and the first decades of the twentieth century. He moved to Milan in 1935, where he met artists such as Aligi Sassu, Renato Birolli, Giacomo Manzù, Ernesto Treccani, with whom he gave rise to the artistic movement "Corrente", between 1938 and 1943, whose shared intent was to confront modern European culture, repudiating the cultural isolation imposed by fascist politics and promoting new forms of freedom of expression, based on the lines of post-impressionism typical of Ensor, Van Gogh and the German expressionists. In 1946 he became a professor at the Academy of Genoa. In 1948 he acquired the chair of sculpture at the Accademia Albertina in Turin and, for the first time, participated in the Venice Biennale, to which he was again invited in 1950. In 1951 he moved to Turin and took part in the Biennales of São Paulo in Brazil and Alexandria in Egypt. In 1958 he won a purchase prize at the sixth edition of the Spoleto Prize. Since his early masterpieces, Cherchi introduced and maintained a coherent line of development, reaching a culminating moment in the works of the last period with the setting of the relationship between man and landscape. Many of his works were created to be placed in public places, such as Immagine e struttura nel ferro e nell'acciaio, 1959 (Republic of San Marino), and Figura nel paesaggio, 1989 (Parco della Pellerina, Turin).
