Sculpture, 1995

At the Artivisive Gallery, large sculptures in terra cotta and Roman travertine marble were pieced together by Immacolata Datti a Roman artist who looks for natural rhythms in form that recall traditional Italian stone architecture. In Labyrinth 144 in the Cathedral, a towerlike form plays with the differences in color and surface of a variety of native stones. In fact, Datti’s sculptures seem to be fragments of historical architecture of various styles from Etruscan to Medieval to Baroque.

Her sculptures are large enough to carry the spectator to a place far away in the past, while also implying the fragmented or broken origin of mankind.
