Muut tiedot
The work is one of a small number of sculptures that Marino Marini conceived in 1951 featuring calligraphic, wire-like forms. The figure of the horse is Marini's most famous and precious motif. He used the horse, and man's relationship to it, as a means of exploring his anxieties and feelings about the human condition in the post-war era, where technology had brought an end to the interdependence that had formerly meant that riders were essentially an everyday sight in much of Europe and the United States. In Piccolo cavallo filiforme, Marini has paid tribute to the loss of that ancient bond, invoking it through an expressionistic style that is at once highly modern and yet timeless.
