Critics
A selection of critical texts and comments on the work of Tonino Scuccimarra, spanning studio pieces, sacred art and monumental works.
“Elegant bronzes, shaped with a delicate hand and masterful skill, ready to capture in the synthesis of forms the sudden leap of movement… A visit not to be forgotten.” — Rodolfo De Martino, La Città, Florence, 3 January 1981.

“Calm and serene sculptures… a possible catharsis, in the Aristotelian sense, for the viewer.” — Alberto Cesare Ambesi, Il punto sulla moda, Milan, January 1981.
