Milestone Monday, Part 2

On this day, February 27 in 1901, Italian sculptor, painter, and printmaker Marino Marini was born in Tuscany, Italy. Besides his long professional career as an artist, Marini was a professor of art at the Scuola d’Arte di Villa Reale in Monza, near Milan, from 1929 to1940 and then a sculpture professor at the Accademia di Belle Arti di Brera (now Brera Academy) in Milan from 1940 to 1970. Marini developed several themes in his work, including equestrian, nudes, portraits, and circus figures. He was deeply influenced by ancient Etruscan sculpture and according to museum curator Lucy Flint, “by interpreting classical themes in light of modern concerns and with modern techniques, he sought to contribute a mythic image that would be applicable in a contemporary context.”

The first five images shown here are from Homage to Marino Marini, edited by G. di San Lazzaro and translated by Wade Stevenson, with the first image being an original lithograph. It was published in New York by Tudor Publishing Company in 1975. 

The last five images are from Marino Marini: A Suite of Sixty-three Re-creations of Drawings and Sketches in Many Mediums, with an introductory text by Werner Haftmann, and published in New York by Harry N. Abrams in 1968 in a limited edition of 2000 copies, of which ours is one of 500 specially numbered copies. The images were produced by the Günter Dietz Workshop in Lengmoos, Germany using a unique reproduction system that combines the silkscreen printing process with photochemical color separation.
