Federico Alibrio "The Guardian of Time" (First Bronze Work) A True Collector's Event: The First Bronze by Alibrio For the most attentive and farsighted collectors, this work represents an unforgettable turning point. After having extensively demonstrated his mastery in shaping clay and ceramics, Federico Alibrio makes the great evolutionary leap toward the eternity of metal. This is absolutely the very first piece the artist produced in bronze, cast masterfully with the millennial lost-wax technique. Owning this work means not only owning a sculpture of immense charm, but securing a piece of history in Alibrio's artistic journey. Description of the Work: The artist's favorite subject, the hieratic and spiritual little owl (barbagianni), leaves behind the fragility of clay to embody a noble, heavy, and timeless material. The transition to bronze amplifies the magnetism typical of his twilight creatures, giving the sculpture a unique authority and mystery. The Patina and Reflections of Time: As can be seen in the photos, the surface of the bronze is enhanced by a spectacular and elegant green-blue patination (typical of natural oxidations of ancient bronze) that softly fades toward warm, darkened, and golden tones at the relief points and along the wings. The Contrast of Details: The animal's face shows a fineness of execution from another era. The line of the facial disc and, in particular, the tip of the beak emerge from the dark patina thanks to a mirrored polishing of the golden bronze, which catches the surrounding light as if a spark of life in the darkness. The Organic Base: The figure stands proudly on a square wooden pedestal. The contrast between the geometric purity of the light wood, with its vertical grains and natural knots, and the plastic, tormented, and ancestral texture of bronze creates a perfect conceptual balance between heaven and earth. The early works define the future value of an artist. This lost-wax sculpture combines the charm of classical and monumental sculpture with Federico Alibrio's contemporary and intimate sensibilities. A unique piece of exceptional value, destined to dominate any environment and appreciate over time. At the lower part of the bronze are the artist's signature and the authenticity monogram. The Sicilian artist Federico Alibrio, born in 1995, is always seeking inspiration to grow through new experiences. Diploma in Sculpture in 2021 from the Academy of Fine Arts of Catania, he works in sculpture and painting. He has participated and continues to participate in high-profile cultural exhibitions and symposia, demonstrating commitment and seriousness in facing sculptural practice. "Open-minded people find inspiration everywhere" is one of his philosophical approaches. Reality itself is the greatest source of inspiration. His passions are: wildlife (sensitive to endangered species) and trees. His aim is to exhibit the beauty of nature.
