Luigi Stoisa
DI MATERIA IN MATERIA

Description

The monograph constitutes the first study dedicated entirely to the sculptural production of the artist Luigi Stoisa.
The volume, entirely edited by the artist as a sort of catalog raisonné, collects the main sculptural projects of his entire production, created using different mediums, from terracotta to unfired clay and then bronze, stone and steel. The artist reports in the monograph not only the final work but also many drawings and projects, defined by himself as “the closest realization to the mind, the first manual action that leaves a mark, that testifies to a thought, therefore the first art” .
The works are accompanied by numerous critical texts and “Letters” written by the artist and addressed to friends, his collectors but above all to the humanity that observes him. As written by the critic Roberto Mastroianni, author of one of the texts in inside the volume, “This is a space where matter meets spirit”.
