Mattia Bosco
MM2 by Mattia Bosco - Large-size sculpture, Palissandro marble, grey tones, iron

2023

About the Item

MM2 is a unique sculpture by contemporary artist Mattia Bosco. This sculpture is made of Palissandro marble, stainless steel, iron, dimensions are 168 × 69 × 30 cm (66.1 × 27.2 × 11.8 in). This sculpture is a unique piece and comes with a certificate of authenticity. The process used by the artist is significantly different from that of traditional sculpture, where the sculptor begins with a block of stone that already contains the desired and imagined form and then removes extra material. For Mattia Bosco, on the other hand, the sculptor's intervention is straightforward, constrained, and limited, and it only seeks to bring out and purify the form that is already present in the stone. Form and substance are therefore inseparable; stone, for example, is already a potential sculpture because it always tends to take on a particular shape. The artist chooses the fascinating rocks from among the extracted fragments right there in the quarries. He gives them a base, sets them vertically, and begins to leave his own imprint on the surface.

  • (4 pieces) Rolling dice/Turning luck, Marble Sculpture, Suitable for Outdoors
    By Bertalan Andrasfalvy
    Located in Boston, MA
    Artist Commentary: Rolling dice, turning luck! All 6 sides of the dice has the same probability. When the dice is cubic, the results are digital, but when the dice getting closer to the ball shape the results could be analog and infinite when it is a perfect ball. Old cobblestones were used to make the heavy dices. In 3 steps the cube became a ball, a real rolling dice. Keywords: Abstract, dice, 4 pieces, black, white Artist Biography: Born in Hungary, Andrasfalvy is 50, with swift dark eyes, a chiseled jaw, and a casually athletic frame that stretch, well over six feet.
