INTERNATIONAL COMPETITION OF SCULPTURE - ITALY
Deadline: 31st of July for the application – 10th of
September for sending the model
Typology: Sculpture
In order to enhance the bovine race and the local stone,
that ever since past times have represented important
resources for our territory, Gal (Azione Ossola) in
collaboration with APA Novara and VCO (Provincial
association of breeders), and Assograniti VCO, are promoting
an international competition of sculpture: “ stone and its
pastoral muse”, using local stone the “Serizzo
Antigorio” in the Verbano Cusio Ossola territory.
Domodossola.
SUBJECT:
The artist considering the stone material used for the
creation of the sculpture the “Serizzo Antigorio”,
should accomplish the subject: “ Bruna Alpine” breed of
cow in its real size.
The “Pastoral Muse” can be freely interpreted in its
historical and social context : as a companion of man,
mother and woman in the rural environment, as a creator of
resources, as a metaphor of fertility, maternity, a bearer
of austere, intimistic love and so on..
Surrounded by the Alps , the Verbano Cusio Ossola
territory, is considered to be a land of nature. Here the
harmonic sense of creation, has shown its expression
through giant rocks, coloured flora and mysterious fauna.
The lakes Orta,Mergozzo and Maggiore, mirrors of the sky,
have represented elements of communication and exchanges
from the Celts until nowaday.
This territory, full of emotions and traditions , alternates
the four seasons, following the spontaneous beat of the
earth, offering to residents and tourists its blooming
semplicity.
It is in this area that men, since remote times, have
connected and related their existence, with the expression
of their surroundings, considering nature, not only as a
landscape, but as a faithful accomplice, companion and
vital lymph.
Since long ago, farming, was wide spread, many cows
populated meadows. In the Ossola territory, it was not
difficult to find numerous dairies spread around in small
hamlets: these dairies became a fundamental meeting point
for breeders, peasants, shepherds and families. Dairies were
the places for the artisanal production of milk and its
derivates: “pearls of the local economy”
If the “Bruna Alpine” breed of cow, was the “
Pastoral Muse”, protagonist with its soft movements of the
first resource in Ossola, at the same time, a geological
resource, with strong and majestic features, was
characterizing another working aspect, even more important:
the extraction and processing of stone.
The first stone-masons, with the only instruments at their
disposal: cudgels and chisels, transformed a raw block into
a great hand-made piece of work, which was useful and
essential for daily life. (houses, cowsheds, hay-lofts,
roads, but also artistic work, such as churches and chapels)
With untiring repeated perseverance, men beat the stone,
a metallic tinkling echoed among the montains, beating out
the time of work, shared together with mothers and
companions through ringing cow-bells.
The perseverance of this work, difficulties and sacrifices
of these professions, surely weren’t forgotten and put
into a disheartened oblivium, but they represented the
seeds of today’s fruits.
Historical images, conjure up people, who lived history,
they represent important witnesses of this original
connection “stone and its Pastoral Muse” that deeply
characterized the course of the “mountain man”.
PARTICIPATION
