— In the artwork Marini confronts the dramatic moment when balance collapses. Figures and horses, fractured and disoriented, spiral in a choreography of chaos. Angular limbs and bold planes of color — red, blue, violet — disrupt the serenity of the composition, transforming it into a vision of struggle and release. The fall, however, is not defeat; it is revelation.
Through this work, Marini reflects on the fragility of harmony in modern life. The rider, long his emblem of control and grace, now surrenders to instability. Yet within this disintegration, beauty persists — a rhythm that transcends despair. The abstraction of form heightens emotional intensity, as if the artist were sculpting air and motion itself. La caduta becomes both tragedy and transformation, a metaphor for human renewal born from loss.
Marino Marini is best known for his dynamic equestrian sculptures — stylized representations of horse and rider that evolved from classical harmony into increasingly dramatic and expressive forms.
