Città 1963

Fausto Melotti's 1963 sculpture "Città" is an abstract work composed of thin metal rods and flat planes. The delicate structure, suggestive of a city skyline, captures the essence of urban development through its skeletal framework. Melotti's work often explored the relationship between form and space, evoking a sense of fragility and ethereal beauty. The use of thin metal evokes a sense of lightness, suggesting the fleeting nature of urban landscapes, which are constantly changing and evolving.
