He devoted himself to sculpture, but also to drawings, etchings and paintings, often centred on female models, painters, female dancers and lovers figures. His works are valued also abroad, where, as well as in Italy, he exhibited from 1933. He also won several italian and internationsl prizes thanks to his famous works and his importance in art field. His works are exposed in several museums, like Vatican Museums and Giacomo Manzù Museum in Ardea. The theme of lovers is a recurring one in the artist's work. The figures are portrayed in tender and passionate hugs, often half covered by thin and soft clothes. less
