Homage to Galileo Galilei

Amadeo Gabino, 1997. Corten steel.
Galileo Galilei would look for signs of the sky on the rough surface of the Homenaje. The sculptural ensemble, about three metres high, is made up of two semicircular geometric structures, made of corten steel and placed obliquely. Each of these two structures is in turn composed of plates joined by welding, which curve and arch, and draw concentric routes in this map that defines a thousand planets of the cosmos of dreams.
