Gio Pomodoro

Gio Pomodoro (1930-2002) was an Italian sculptor known for his minimalist and geometric sculptures. Often working in polished bronze and steel, Pomodoro's works explore themes of division, tension, and the interplay of light and shadow. His sculptures, such as the iconic "Sfera con Slitta" series, feature smooth, spherical forms with dramatic openings, creating a dialogue between the whole and the fragmented. Pomodoro's works are highly sought after by collectors and museums worldwide, and he remains a prominent figure in the art world.
