Giuseppe Armani Figurine, concerned "Concerned" Children with Lamb 3239
Giuseppe Armani was born in the village of Calci, Italy in 1935. From the moment young Giuseppe could pick up a pencil, he drew all day long. And it wasn’t long before his parents and teachers saw he had The Gift. Young Armani was enrolled in the Academy of Fine Arts in Florence when his father unexpectedly died.
It was when Giuseppe’s Parish Priest organized an exhibition for young artists, that he entered Giuseppe’s sculpture.
It was there in Pisa that Armani’s dream of studying art was finally realized. While in Pisa, he often traveled to Siena and Florence where he immersed himself in the great masterpieces of the Renaissance.
For more than 25 years, Armani had created masterpieces ranging from the traditional Capodimonte style to the more daring, contemporary and whimsical sculptures.
Giuseppe Armani's credo: “Although I consider myself a direct descendant of the Renaissance heritage, I believe that an artist has to follow his own evolution and not be solely a remnant of the past, as glorious as the past may have been. I am continually compelled to discover new and better means of expression.”
Giuseppe Armani passed away 28th of October 2006, in consequense of a massive stroke.
