Roberto Spadoni

Roberto Spadoni worked as a doctor in Bologna until he became a cardiologist in 1997; he then moved to Hamburg and since 1998 has dedicated himself to his art. Characteristic for the work of Roberto Spadoni is the poetic animation of hard material, the pleasure of sculpting the ambition to combine a minimum of elements to obtain a three dimension piece. The ideal result is one single piece of iron twisted and turned to finally interpret a Madonna or a monk. You could also say arranging and bending are the two most important tools of the artist Roberto Spadoni.

Leaving out and stopping at the right moment are his biggest challenges. His artistic principle is the synthesis between the encounter and invention. To have an eye for the secret nature of things, but also the insight that gives these objects a soul is actually the brilliancy of Robert Spadoni’s art. “A song sleeps in everything that lies dreaming, and the world begins to sing if you say the magic word”, Joseph von Eichendorff. Roberto Spadoni catches this spell and for this reason his creations have the magic that touches and reconciles us with a disenchanted world.
