Regularly present at national exhibitions, at the Societ\u00e0 degli Amatori e Cultori di Belle Arti, the Biennale Meridionale in Bari, the Mostra d\u2019arte decorativa in Monza and the Venice Biennale, in the 1920s Carmine Tripodi was part of the Gruppo Artistico Calabrese, whose aim was to emancipate artistic regionalism of its more banally folkloristic aspects, in favour of a more profound interpretation of tradition. Both monumental sculptor and refined medallist, Tripodi often dedicated himself to sculpture in wood, a technique inherited from the centuries-old tradition of his native Oppido Mamertina, as in this sophisticated nude, intimist and dreamy, and identifiable perhaps with the wooden figure in Agricoltore (Farmer), shown in 1935 at the Mostra di disegni del Sindacato Interprovinciale Fascista Belle Arti in Rome, or Perseus, \u201cwho seems to live from fresh youth,\u201d as cited by Enrico Aeberli in 1950 on \u201cIl Ponte\u201d by Piero Calamandrei.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
