Salvino Marsura Il Cielo Coat Stand, Treviso, Italy, 2000s

$3,320
Description

At the centre of the Il Cielo coat stand, three blue iron rods rise from a shared base. Brutalist hooks extend upward from the structure, their vertical inflection and sky-toned finish subtly referencing the title of the work.


The piece is in good condition, with patination true to its age.


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.

Béton Brut comes from the concrete finish used in modernist architecture. It is rational yet organic, just like the collection.
