Salvino Marsura Sguardo all’Orizzonte sculpture

In this Marsura sculpture, brutal, chain-like elements are crowned by an organic, sun-like circle, hinting at man’s efforts to tame and master nature. 

The piece is in good condition, with the designer’s name etched on the base. 

Salvino Marsura (1938–2020) was an artisan metalworker. After learning his craft in the dynamic workshop of sculptor and ‘iron poet’ Toni Benetton, he spent more than 60 years producing sculpture, furniture, objects and memorials in his hometown of Treviso, Italy.

Marsura’s ironwork art and furniture relishes in the manual aesthetic of the forge, giving voice to the raw metal and the processes of its manipulation including sweltering heat, hammering, bending and welding. His distinctive hand marries elements of brutalism and traditional decorative arts.
