Sculpture

“…of all the art forms, sculpture is the one that most makes me feel like both an artist and an engineer. In sculpture, the two figures blend perfectly. The emotional component must necessarily be counterbalanced with the design one. Cesare the artist and the engineer Cesare coexist in balance…”

(Cesare Catania)

Among the countless definitions of “Sculpture”, we can think of this as the art of giving shape to an object starting from a raw material or assembling different materials together. Cesare Catania embodies this definition perfectly and enriches it with what he himself defines as “emotional experimentation”, that process which leads him not only to experiment with new materials but which does so by combining materials, geometries and colors with different feelings.

The Sculptures of Cesare Catania: Universal Energy and Emotional Impact

Cesare Catania’s sculptures are inspired by the concepts that he himself defines as “pivotal” in his artistic production. His contemporary art refers to the universal energy emanating from our planet which inspires the collection entitled “The Heart of the Earth”, as well as to the theme of the Embrace, but also finds connections with music, with the moon, up to describe social and medical issues, such as urban recycling and color blindness. A contemporary sculpture with a high emotional impact, all balanced by the mix of traditional materials such as steel, concrete, marble, glass and technological materials such as silicone and acrylic.

artistic focus

Sculpture and Silicone

An artist passionate about three-dimensionality, Cesare Catania loves sculpting matter and literally modeling colours. We find this characteristic of his both in his 3D Paintings but also in his sculptural production.

Over the years he has developed his own technique with which he mixes silicone, acrylic and mineral pigments, thus managing to color the material directly in paste. This technique, called the “Catania Technique”, allows him to open his mind and merge the inspirational and creative processes together. In practice, the artist colors and shapes the material simultaneously, thus having the perception of being able to immortalize his emotions in a definitive and three-dimensional way, without therefore having to return to the worked material to give it color once it has finished drying.
