— Forma X per GEPI embodies Pomodoro’s fascination with the intersection of geometry and expression. The sculpture’s sharp, intersecting planes rise in a dynamic X-shaped structure, their surfaces intricately incised with rhythmic, almost architectural reliefs. Beneath the precision of its outline lies a world of tension — where sculpted texture meets light, and where energy seems to emanate from within the metal itself.
The intersecting forms suggest a meeting of opposing forces: balance and conflict, matter and void, structure and dissolution. Pomodoro transforms the stability of geometry into a living organism, a symbol of both power and fragility. The sculpture’s polished and rough surfaces play in constant dialogue, evoking the dualities inherent in modern life.
Through Forma X per GEPI, Pomodoro articulates a vision of sculpture as a language of construction and deconstruction. The work stands not as a static monument, but as a moment of transition — an abstract sign carved from bronze, capturing the eternal movement between creation and collapse.
Arnaldo Pomodoro is renowned for his monumental bronze sculptures that often incorporate geometric forms like spheres, discs, and pyramids. His work explores the tension between perfection and disruption, often representing the conflict between order and chaos, technology and nature, or surface and depth.
