James Licini

artist Switzerland

James Licini was a Swiss steel sculptor known for his minimalist approach to art, focusing on the fundamental forms of architecture. Born in 1935 in Zurich, Licini began his career as a blacksmith and later became a steel constructor, which he insisted defined his identity more than that of an artist. His works, characterized by open structures and geometric forms, were influenced by his experiences in the United States and Mexico, particularly the indigenous art and pre-Columbian cultures. Licini's significant contributions to contemporary sculpture were recognized in numerous exhibitions, with his last monumental piece set to be displayed soon before his passing at the age of 88 in July 2023.

Born on Jul 27, 1935 (90 years old)
