<span style="font-family: Georgia, Palatino; font-size: 12pt;">MANIFESTO FOR NEW SCULPTURES</span></p>
<p style="text-align: center;"><span style="font-family: Georgia, Palatino; font-size: 12pt;">NEW FUTURISM</span></p>
<p style="text-align: center;"><span style="font-family: Georgia, Palatino; font-size: 12pt;">There can be no renewal of art if the essence is not renewed, that is,</span><br />
<span style="font-family: Georgia, Palatino; font-size: 12pt;">the vision and concept of line and mass that forms the sculpture.</span></p>
<p style="text-align: center;"><span style="font-family: Georgia, Palatino; font-size: 12pt;">To renew the art of sculpture we must start from the nucleus of the object we want to create in order to</span><br />
<span style="font-family: Georgia, Palatino; font-size: 12pt;">discover new forms that link it invisibly to the apparent infinite. This new art will then be a translation into material of those atmospheric planes that</span><br />
<span style="font-family: Georgia, Palatino; font-size: 12pt;">link and intersect things. This physical transcendentalism of sculpture must give life</span><br />
<span style="font-family: Georgia, Palatino; font-size: 12pt;">to objects by a system of interpenetration.</span></p>
<p style="text-align: center;"><span style="font-family: Georgia, Palatino; font-size: 12pt;">Objects do not exist in isolation – they cut through and divide the surrounding space in an arabesque of directional curves.</span><br />
<span style="font-family: Georgia, Palatino; font-size: 12pt;">The divisionist technique endeavors to penetrate the object and represent movement.</span></p>
<p>&#160;</p>
<p style="text-align: center;"><span style="font-family: Georgia, Palatino; font-size: 12pt;">PHYSICAL TRANSCENDENTALISM</span><br />
<span style="font-family: Georgia, Palatino; font-size: 12pt;">The work of art, aspires to proceed from a realm of indeterminacy of chance, of dream which has significance for life but superior to it – a realm of super-reality.</span></p>
