In 2013 the Artistic Foundry Ferdinando Marinelli<\/strong><\/a>, together with the Bazzanti Art Gallery<\/strong><\/a> and the friend Federico Frediani, organized e a bronze<\/strong> sculpture<\/strong> exhibition at the Italian Cultural Institute of Los Angeles<\/a> together.<\/p>\n

[\/vc_column_text][vc_images_carousel images=”6406″ img_size=”post-slide” hide_pagination_control=”yes” hide_prev_next_buttons=”yes”][vc_column_text el_class=”corsivo-blu”]<\/p>\n

On that occasion he was invited to spend two days in the villa of friends of Federico in Malibu. And there, at lunch, after Ferdinando had cooked a \u201crisotto\u201d, he met Dr. Liviu Eftime and his wife Adina. Two art lovers, like all the friends in the company. Dr. Liviu is also an exceptional painter, his wife is a writer. A pleasant friendship is born. Liviu mentions a new villa for which he would like to sculpt and cast<\/strong> bronze<\/strong> doors.<\/p>\n

At the end of 2017 a series of phone calls between Los Angeles and Florence: Liviu has been creating the models of his door in clay, asking us how to execute the negative molds and how to send them to the Foundry in Barberino val d’Elsa (Florence). In March 2018 he sent photos of his work<\/p>\n

[\/vc_column_text][vc_images_carousel images=”6425,6428″ img_size=”post-slide”][vc_column_text el_class=”corsivo-blu”]<\/p>\n

In April 2018 the negative molds arrive in the Foundry. A few days later Liviu arrives in the Foundry too and our friend Federico Frediani comes to visit us. We go immediately to have lunch together in the country.<\/p>\n

[\/vc_column_text][vc_images_carousel images=”6432,6435,6438″ img_size=”post-slide”][vc_custom_heading text=”The Work” font_container=”tag:h3|text_align:left” use_theme_fonts=”yes” el_class=”titolo-articolo”][vc_column_text el_class=”corsivo-blu”]<\/p>\n

During his visits in Tuscany Liviu closely follows the work of the Foundry, retouching the waxes; he argues that the work of art is never finished, and in every processing phase he wants to make changes and modifications, just as Leonardo da Vinci did on the Gioconda painting, which he always carried with him in his travels and which he constantly retouched.<\/p>\n

[\/vc_column_text][vc_images_carousel images=”6441,6444″ img_size=”post-slide”][vc_column_text el_class=”corsivo-blu”]<\/p>\n

The waxes are covered with refractory material (\u201cloto\u201d) and the \u201cloto\u201d molds are fired in the furnaces.<\/p>\n

The processing of the newly cast bas-reliefs is performed by the Marinelli\u2019s Foundry together with Liviu.<\/p>\n

[\/vc_column_text][vc_images_carousel images=”6450,6453,6456″ img_size=”post-slide”][vc_column_text el_class=”corsivo-blu”]<\/p>\n

The bas-reliefs are welded and assembled to form the two parts of the door followed by a well-deserved lunch.<\/p>\n

[\/vc_column_text][vc_images_carousel images=”6460,6463″ img_size=”post-slide”][vc_column_text el_class=”corsivo-blu”]<\/p>\n

In January 2019 Liviu returns to Italy in the Foundry for final testing, and then we celebrated with another lunch.<\/p>\n

[\/vc_column_text][vc_images_carousel images=”6467,6470″ img_size=”post-slide”][vc_column_text el_class=”corsivo-blu”]<\/p>\n

The doors, patinated, waiting for the packaging and shipping to Laguna Beach.<\/p>\n
