Emilio Greco
From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
Emilio Greco (October 11, 1913 - April 5, 1995) was an Italian sculptor.
Greco was born at Catania, whose Greek and Roman remains grow in him a passion for ancient sculpture. His first successful work was a "Pinocchio" at Collodi.[1] He died in Rome in 1995. Throughout his career, his sculptures tend to be refined, with elongated forms in the Italian Mannerist tradition.[2] Laura is a typical example of his mature sculpture.
