The catalogue surveys the sculpture of this great artist: the ‘mothers' in marble, travertine, bronze, the terracotta beds, but the raw material of this simple and sublime art is stone, the humble stone that is freed from heaviness and is skilfully rendered ethereal and transparent by him, as if suffused with autonomous light.
