ARTIST INFO:
Sergio DeGiusti
In my work I try to create images that evoke fantasies of tomb
sculptures, slabs,
columns, commemorative stones and architectural fragments and
the anthropological rituals from many different cultures. I draw
from endless variety of symbols that record and depict the history
of mankind.
The work in this year’s two hanging relief panels “The
Arts” deals with images of music, opera, theater, ballet
and conducting.
Historically mankind has always erected monuments to mark or
commemorate events. In my work I try to create images that evoke
references to ancient stones, columns or funerary markers. I
am interested in the images and symbols depicted in a "Stela"
similar to those of the ancient Maya. My column has figurative
elements such as a human head, a hand and the fragment of a female
figure. There are suggestions on the surface of meandering rivers
anthropological markings and geological erosions on our planet. |
