“Notte” Postmodern Masterpiece in Wood and Pietra di Vicenza by Alberto Cabiddu
About the Item
Elevate your collection with “Notte”, a striking postmodern sculpture by Italian artist Alberto Cabiddu, created in 1995. Standing 52 cm high (20.47 in.), 26 cm wide (10.24 in.), and 17.5 cm deep (6.89 in.), this sculptural work commands presence through its bold architectural geometry and a masterful balance of material and form.
Carved from ebonized wood and Pietra di Vicenza, a luminous Italian limestone historically used in Renaissance architecture, Notte explores duality—light and shadow, mass and void, stillness and movement. With echoes of Cubism, Constructivism, and the compositional sophistication of Louise Nevelson or Isamu Noguchi, Cabiddu presents a timeless work that bridges sculpture, design, and philosophy.
The sculpture is signed by the artist, adding further collectible value and authenticity. Its modular, almost totemic form makes it a showpiece for refined interiors—ideal for collectors of postmodern design, architectural sculpture, or Italian contemporary art.
Whether displayed solo or integrated into a curated collection, Notte exudes a quiet power and sophistication that is both modern and timeless.

Alberto Cabiddu, born in Geneva, Switzerland, in 1966, discovered his passion for art at just 10 years old, thanks to a teacher who saw his talent. Though his teenage years were more focused on music than art, his love for drawing returned full force around age 18, leading him to Paris and back to Geneva for drawing courses.
In 1987, Alberto moved to the province of Vicenza, where he fell in love with sculpture, experimenting with local "Vicenza stone," marble, wood, and clay. He learned from artists like sculptor Agostino Gallio and ceramicist Antonio Visentin, but mostly, he's a self-taught artist. Today, Alberto focuses on abstract sculpture.
"So far, he has never been interested in promoting or sharing his work, but with time, things change..."
