Abstract painting by Sandro Martini (b. 1941). 'Sandro Martini was born on April 21, 1941 in Livorno (Tuscany- Italy). Since 1957 he has received acknowledgements for his work with awards and publications of reviews on newspapers. At 17 he was commissioned to complete reliefs to the new Synagogue in Livorno by the Architect Andrea di Castro. In these years he made sculptures on wood and iron. In 1960 he moved to Milan. In 1962 Le Ore was the first gallery to exhibit his works. An exclusive collaboration with the gallery began. Other collaborations with important galleries followed: in 1967 Il Milione, in 1975 La Galleria Blu. From 1977 Sandro Martini began his experience abroad with an exhibition in Paris (Gallerie NRA – presented by Marcelin Playnet). The following year he had a personal exhibition at the Fine Art University of Massachusetts. Since then he has been travelling from his studios in New York, San Francisco and Milan. Toronto has granted him another prestigious acknowledgement with the recent permanent installation Glass Memory at the Burano Building to which Martini has dedicated five years between planning and building.' {source: Esteri} (Key Word Search: Diebenkorn, Bischoff, Motherwell, Sam Francis)
