About the Item

Furniture-sculpture by Venetian artist Livio De Marchi, also known as "The Carpenter of Venice." While still a child, he worked on ornamental sculpture in an artisan workshop and simultaneously studied art and drawing at the Academy. It was there that he began his activity, immediately revealing an unusual skill in shaping matter, which resulted in an ironic sensibility that prompted him to produce sculptures. In his artistic evolution he transited from marble to bronze, until he came to wood, which would remain his favorite material; it gave him a vitality that other materials did not convey. After profound evolutions his oh-so-ironic ability to grasp life takes over, leading to this new way of making sculpture. His works have been exhibited in various cities around the world including Milan, Florence, London , Paris, Düsseldorf, Zurich, Toronto, New York, Los Angeles, Tokyo, etc., published in many design and architecture magazines. In 1990 he built his first "House of Books," an architectural structure fully furnished and equipped with every accessory, from furniture and its accessories, to 'clothing made entirely of wood. The work presented here is a small table with sliding drawer covered with tablecloth.
