ITALIAN PROFESSIONAL SCULPTOR, WORKS INCLUDE MARBLE, BRONZE AND TERRACOTTA

Born in 1962 in Pietrasanta, a city steeped in art, traditionally  recognized for the quality of the work of its master artisans and famous  for the creation of marble and bronze sculptures. Pietrasanta’s  enduring artistic heritage continues to this day due to the flourishing  of significant works by many of today’s most influential professional sculptors.  Marcello’s love of the classical tradition defines him as a pre-eminent  portrait sculptor. His sculpture and art commissions include works in terracotta, marble, bronze and resin. 


He attended the Pietrasanta  Art Institute ”Stagio Stagi, and then at sixteen entered into a ten year  apprenticeship at the Claudio Mariani Foundry, learning from master artisans the techniques of mould making and bronze casting. Selected in  1988 to assist the acclaimed Polish professional sculptor Jgor Mitoraj which gained  him an in-depth understanding of figurative art and form along with the  further mastery of clay modelling methods. In 1991 founded his own professional  sculpture studio in Pietrasanta, assisting many of today’s major  contemporary artists, and with his extensive knowledge and experience  worked on a wide range of successful collaborations.   Shortly after relocating  to Montreal in the Fall of 2016, he started to teach in order to share his in-depth knowledge of sculpting. His deeply-held convictions about the essentialness  of art drive him to share Italian art traditions with professional  artists and serious amateurs alike. Marcello Giorgi, himself a perpetual  student and apprentice of revered art teachers, is unwavering in his  commitment to pass on his comprehensive knowledge.  His works can currently be found in museums, public spaces  and in private collections around the world.
