About the Item

Salvatore Messina, room divider or wall unit, aluminum, Italy, 1960s Salvatore Messina (1916–1982) explored the themes of movement and spatial concepts through his innovative metal sculptures. The three-dimensionality of this piece is highlighted by the angled elements arranged at varying inclines. Vertical lines enhance the dynamic energy and rhythm of the room divider. The interplay between shiny and matte metal surfaces contributes to a sense of fluidity, while the materials emphasize the luxurious aesthetic of this handcrafted piece. Messina signed the work with "Salv". Kindly note that this item shows signs of wear and use and needs restoring before use.
