Kisses and hugs, immediately for lunch together; &#8220;Also call Sergio Benvenuti&#8221; he told me. Dudi was born in Fiesole, just outside Florence, and he had studied in Florence. After a few libations he threw in an idea: as he was following the construction of a new stadium for the city of Denver in Colorado financed by Pat Bowlen, and since the football team of the city was owned by Bowlen, he would have liked to have a <strong>monument<\/strong> in Florence to be placed outside the stadium.<br \/>\nWe were having lunch in a fifteenth-century palace in town, in the restaurant of a famous ancient family producing splendid wines, at our table the empty bottles rapidly increased. Dudi then began to talk about a bronze colossus like that of Rhodes, 40 meters high which, with legs apart, to be the entrance of the cars in the parking of the stadium. The dessert, a delicious trifle, had led to something more probable and achievable: a series of horses of the Broncos breed, which was the name of the Denver team, of which Pat Bowlen was president and owner. I went back to the foundry with Sergio, Dudi went to the hotel to sleep.<br \/>\nThe following day, another lunch: Dudi, Sergio and me. We went to Monteriggioni, another big lunch, other wine.<\/p>\n<p>[\/vc_column_text][vc_images_carousel images=&#8221;9580&#8243; img_size=&#8221;post-slide&#8221; hide_pagination_control=&#8221;yes&#8221; hide_prev_next_buttons=&#8221;yes&#8221;][vc_column_text el_class=&#8221;corsivo-blu&#8221;]<\/p>\n<p align=\"justify\">At the caf\u00e9 Sergio with his big hands removed everything from the table, and opened a folder with a handful of drawings he had made during the night: a series of seven Broncos horses that ran towards the stadium going up the course of a torrent. Dudi lit up with a beaming smile, made Sergio get up and hugged him. Then he looked at me and asked &#8220;can it be done?&#8221; and when I replied &#8220;certainly&#8221; he hugged me too and started laughing with happiness and exclaimed &#8220;the fountain of the Broncos horses!&#8221;<br \/>\nTwo days later Dudi was back in Denver with Sergio&#8217;s drawings to propose the Broncos &#8216;fountain&#8217;.<br \/>\nAfter another two days Dudi called me around midnight, for him it was early afternoon, telling me to have a small model of the horses and the <strong>fountain<\/strong> made, and to call him as soon as it was ready. Sergio had an exceptional sculptural ability, and in half a day he had prepared the small clay model.<\/p>\n<p>[\/vc_column_text][vc_images_carousel images=&#8221;9583&#8243; img_size=&#8221;post-slide&#8221; hide_pagination_control=&#8221;yes&#8221; hide_prev_next_buttons=&#8221;yes&#8221;][vc_column_text el_class=&#8221;corsivo-blu&#8221;]<\/p>\n<p align=\"justify\">The following week Dudi was back in Florence with the landscape architect to examine with Sergio the enlarged sketches of the <strong>fountain<\/strong> in the <a href=\"http:\/\/www.fonderiamarinelli.it\/en\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\">foundry<\/a>.<\/p>\n<p>[\/vc_column_text][vc_images_carousel images=&#8221;9590,9593,9596,9599&#8243; img_size=&#8221;post-slide&#8221;][vc_column_text el_class=&#8221;corsivo-blu&#8221;]<\/p>\n<p align=\"justify\">hey were enthusiastic;<\/p>\n<p>[\/vc_column_text][vc_images_carousel images=&#8221;9604,9607&#8243; img_size=&#8221;post-slide&#8221;][vc_column_text el_class=&#8221;corsivo-blu&#8221;]<\/p>\n<p align=\"justify\">and they were also enthusiastic about the lunches of those days.<\/p>\n<p>[\/vc_column_text][vc_images_carousel images=&#8221;9611&#8243; img_size=&#8221;post-slide&#8221; hide_pagination_control=&#8221;yes&#8221; hide_prev_next_buttons=&#8221;yes&#8221;][vc_column_text el_class=&#8221;corsivo-blu&#8221;]<\/p>\n<p align=\"justify\">Sergio Benvenuti began modeling one big horse after another in clay, whose waxes were made and retouched in the foundry, then <strong>castings<\/strong> and assemblies.<\/p>\n<p>[\/vc_column_text][vc_images_carousel images=&#8221;9617,9620,9623,9626&#8243; img_size=&#8221;post-slide&#8221;][vc_column_text el_class=&#8221;corsivo-blu&#8221;]<\/p>\n<p align=\"justify\">During the execution of Dudi&#8217;s frequent visits, each time accompanied by an increasing number of various technicians, happy to spend a few days in Tuscany, lunches and dinners were everyone&#8217;s favorite pastime.<\/p>\n<p>[\/vc_column_text][vc_images_carousel images=&#8221;9629,9632,9635,9638,9641&#8243; img_size=&#8221;post-slide&#8221;][vc_column_text el_class=&#8221;corsivo-blu&#8221;]<\/p>\n<p align=\"justify\">When the <strong>bronze<\/strong> horses began to be packed, Pat Bowlen also visited us in Hawaiian shirt.<\/p>\n<p>[\/vc_column_text][vc_images_carousel images=&#8221;9645&#8243; img_size=&#8221;post-slide&#8221; hide_pagination_control=&#8221;yes&#8221; hide_prev_next_buttons=&#8221;yes&#8221;][vc_column_text el_class=&#8221;corsivo-blu&#8221;]<\/p>\n<p align=\"justify\">Then we all moved to Denver, me, my wife, Sergio Benvenuti and various technicians from the foundry, to assemble the horses bronze <strong>statues<\/strong>, one and a half times the size of the originals, at the stadium.<br \/>\nWe were welcomed like heads of state: at the immigration office, when they knew that we were the &#8220;Broncos horses men&#8221; they let us pass immediately shanking our hands: some team manager had sent our data in advance to the competent offices<br \/>\n.<\/p>\n<p>[\/vc_column_text][vc_images_carousel images=&#8221;9648,9651,9654,9657&#8243; img_size=&#8221;post-slide&#8221;][vc_column_text el_class=&#8221;corsivo-blu&#8221;]<\/p>\n<p align=\"justify\">The assembling lasted about ten days<\/p>\n<p>[\/vc_column_text][vc_images_carousel images=&#8221;9661,9664,9667&#8243; img_size=&#8221;post-slide&#8221;][vc_column_text el_class=&#8221;corsivo-blu&#8221;]<\/p>\n<p align=\"justify\">in which Dudi accompanied us on a visit to the town and, mainly, to visit the best restaurants in the city.<\/p>\n<p>[\/vc_column_text][vc_images_carousel images=&#8221;9671&#8243; img_size=&#8221;post-slide&#8221; hide_pagination_control=&#8221;yes&#8221; hide_prev_next_buttons=&#8221;yes&#8221;][vc_column_text el_class=&#8221;corsivo-blu&#8221;]<\/p>\n<p align=\"justify\">Finally the solemn inauguration.<\/p>\n<p>[\/vc_column_text][vc_images_carousel images=&#8221;9675&#8243; img_size=&#8221;post-slide&#8221; hide_pagination_control=&#8221;yes&#8221; hide_prev_next_buttons=&#8221;yes&#8221;][vc_column_text el_class=&#8221;corsivo-blu&#8221;]<\/p>\n<p align=\"justify\">Dudi was fascinated not only by Sergio Benvenuti&#8217;s ability to model large fountains with subjects requested by the client, but also by the creations that Benvenuti performed for himself: a series of dancers, often colored, in various dance poses. Sergio was fascinated by the world of dance, and had taken Dudi to his studio in Chianti, where the dancers were exhibited, cast in bronze by the Ferdinando Marinelli Foundry.<br \/>\nIn a few hours, by telephone, together with Pat Bowlen, Dudi organized an exhibition of Sergio&#8217;s dancers and other sculptures made by him in large and elegant tents in Denver near the Broncos Stadium. The exhibition was a great success, so much so that all the sculptures exhibited were sold in a few days.<\/p>\n<p>[\/vc_column_text][vc_images_carousel images=&#8221;9675&#8243; img_size=&#8221;post-slide&#8221; hide_pagination_control=&#8221;yes&#8221; hide_prev_next_buttons=&#8221;yes&#8221;][vc_column_text el_class=&#8221;corsivo-blu&#8221;]<\/p>\n<p align=\"justify\">Some models are exhibited at the Bazzanti Gallery.<\/p>\n<p>[\/vc_column_text][vc_images_carousel images=&#8221;11472&#8243; img_size=&#8221;post-slide&#8221; hide_pagination_control=&#8221;yes&#8221; hide_prev_next_buttons=&#8221;yes&#8221;][vc_column_text el_class=&#8221;corsivo-blu&#8221;]<\/p>\n<p align=\"justify\">&#8220;Under the Sun&#8221;<\/p>\n<p>[\/vc_column_text][vc_images_carousel images=&#8221;11475&#8243; img_size=&#8221;post-slide&#8221; hide_pagination_control=&#8221;yes&#8221; hide_prev_next_buttons=&#8221;yes&#8221;][vc_column_text el_class=&#8221;corsivo-blu&#8221;]<\/p>\n<p align=\"justify\">&#8220;Dancer with blouse&#8221;<\/p>\n<p>[\/vc_column_text][vc_images_carousel images=&#8221;11479&#8243; img_size=&#8221;post-slide&#8221; hide_pagination_control=&#8221;yes&#8221; hide_prev_next_buttons=&#8221;yes&#8221;][vc_column_text el_class=&#8221;corsivo-blu&#8221;]<\/p>\n<p align=\"justify\">&#8220;Dancer jumping the rope&#8221;<\/p>\n<p>[\/vc_column_text][vc_images_carousel images=&#8221;11482&#8243; img_size=&#8221;post-slide&#8221; hide_pagination_control=&#8221;yes&#8221; hide_prev_next_buttons=&#8221;yes&#8221;][vc_column_text el_class=&#8221;corsivo-blu&#8221;]<\/p>\n<p align=\"justify\">&#8220;Dancer on the stilts&#8221;<\/p>\n<p>[\/vc_column_text][vc_images_carousel images=&#8221;11485&#8243; img_size=&#8221;post-slide&#8221; hide_pagination_control=&#8221;yes&#8221; hide_prev_next_buttons=&#8221;yes&#8221;][vc_column_text el_class=&#8221;corsivo-blu&#8221;]<\/p>\n<p align=\"justify\">&#8220;Sitting dancer&#8221;<\/p>\n<p>[\/vc_column_text][vc_images_carousel images=&#8221;11488&#8243; img_size=&#8221;post-slide&#8221; hide_pagination_control=&#8221;yes&#8221; hide_prev_next_buttons=&#8221;yes&#8221;][vc_column_text el_class=&#8221;corsivo-blu&#8221;]<\/p>\n<p align=\"justify\">&#8220;The cat&#8217;s craddle&#8221;<\/p>\n<p>[\/vc_column_text][vc_images_carousel images=&#8221;11491&#8243; img_size=&#8221;post-slide&#8221; hide_pagination_control=&#8221;yes&#8221; hide_prev_next_buttons=&#8221;yes&#8221;][vc_column_text el_class=&#8221;corsivo-blu&#8221;]<\/p>\n<p align=\"justify\">&#8220;Resting dancer&#8221;<\/p>\n<p>[\/vc_column_text][vc_images_carousel images=&#8221;11494&#8243; img_size=&#8221;post-slide&#8221; hide_pagination_control=&#8221;yes&#8221; hide_prev_next_buttons=&#8221;yes&#8221;][vc_column_text el_class=&#8221;corsivo-blu&#8221;]<\/p>\n<p align=\"justify\">&#8220;Merry go Round&#8221;<\/p>\n<p>[\/vc_column_text][vc_images_carousel images=&#8221;11497&#8243; img_size=&#8221;post-slide&#8221; hide_pagination_control=&#8221;yes&#8221; hide_prev_next_buttons=&#8221;yes&#8221;][vc_column_text el_class=&#8221;corsivo-blu&#8221;]<\/p>\n<p align=\"justify\">&#8220;Relax&#8221;<\/p>\n<p>[\/vc_column_text][vc_images_carousel images=&#8221;11500&#8243; img_size=&#8221;post-slide&#8221; hide_pagination_control=&#8221;yes&#8221; hide_prev_next_buttons=&#8221;yes&#8221;][vc_column_text el_class=&#8221;corsivo-blu&#8221;]<\/p>\n<p align=\"justify\">&#8220;Summer waiting&#8221;<\/p>\n<p>[\/vc_column_text][vc_images_carousel images=&#8221;11503&#8243; img_size=&#8221;post-slide&#8221; hide_pagination_control=&#8221;yes&#8221; hide_prev_next_buttons=&#8221;yes&#8221;][vc_column_text el_class=&#8221;corsivo-blu&#8221;]<\/p>\n<p align=\"justify\">&#8220;Serenade&#8221;<\/p>\n<p>[\/vc_column_text][vc_btn title=&#8221;ALL NEWS&#8221; style=&#8221;outline&#8221; shape=&#8221;square&#8221; color=&#8221;primary&#8221; align=&#8221;center&#8221; link=&#8221;url:https%3A%2F%2Fwww.galleriabazzanti.it%2Fen%2Fnews-magazine%2F|||&#8221;][\/vc_column][\/vc_row]<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>[vc_row full_width=&#8221;stretch_row&#8221; css=&#8221;.vc_custom_1607591069875{padding-top: 300px !important;padding-bottom: 300px !important;background-image: url(https:\/\/www.galleriabazzanti.it\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/12\/blog-amico-americano-sfondo.jpg?id=9553) !important;}&#8221;][vc_column][\/vc_column][\/vc_row][vc_row full_width=&#8221;stretch_row&#8221;][vc_column][vc_custom_heading text=&#8221;An american friend&#8221; font_container=&#8221;tag:h1|text_align:left&#8221; use_theme_fonts=&#8221;yes&#8221; el_class=&#8221;titolo-articolo&#8221;][vc_empty_space][vc_column_text el_class=&#8221;corsivo-blu&#8221;] In 1984 I was very lucky enough to meet the Architect Dudi Berretti in Florence, on the occasion of the creation of the bronze sculpture &#8220;Fountain of the Two Oceans&#8221; for San Diego in California.
