Studio Giuliano Pedretti (1924 - 2012)
The sculptor Giuliano Pedretti developed his complex formal language through his virtuoso handling of light and shadow, physical dimensions, transparency and asymmetry. Based on Rodin's theory, according to which sculpture consists of convex and concave forms, Giuliano Pedretti dissolves the figure to the point of complete transparency. His openwork sculptures are also a reference to the terrenzlas, snow-free patches, of the Engadin landscape in early spring.
The dynamic Engadin artist was "concerned with the creative - something artificially alive, a counterforce to nature, a spiritual survival and continuation of life against the decay of the world, against death and time."
