Stephen Cox (Bristol, 1946 – )<\/p>\n\n\n\n
Stephen Cox was invited to Celleafter he had lived in Florence in the 1980s. He conceived his installation as a contemporary emblem designed for the facade of the fattoria, creating a connection with the historical architecture of Celle’s buildings. The high west facade of the fattoriais adorned with a modular sculpture, consisting of five parts, which serves as a kind of reminder of the importance of the five senses but also became a fragmented portrait of Giuliano Gori. In this work, you can recognize hands, ears, mouth, eyes, and a nose. To create these forms in stone, the artist first made plaster casts of the collector’s face and hand: Giuliano Gori was invited to lie down on the kitchen table of the farmhouse while bandages soaked in plaster were applied to his prepared skin. In a later stage, the stones were selected, ordered and worked, taking the form of five differently colored oval marbles.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"featured_media":5646,"template":"","class_list":["post-6278","artista","type-artista","status-publish","has-post-thumbnail","hentry"],"acf":[],"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.goricoll.it\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/artista\/6278","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.goricoll.it\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/artista"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.goricoll.it\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/artista"}],"wp:featuredmedia":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.goricoll.it\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media\/5646"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.goricoll.it\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=6278"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
