Dino Basaldella (Videm / Udine, Italija / Italy), 1965
Po formatu in izrazu monumentalna skulptura emblematično stoji na izjemni vedutni točki na robu naselja, nad staro ulico ravenskega trškega jedra, ki se razteza nekaj deset metrov pod njo.
Surova in raskava kontura preproste, a sugestivne plastike kot nekakšen arhetipski radar tiplje v pradavnino, v čase prvinskega občutja duhovnosti. Njena oblika je skoraj nasilno iztrgana iz gladkega materiala impozantnih, več decimetrov debelih jeklenih plošč. Vehementna velikopoteznost izvedbe uvršča Basaldellin kip med najboljše izdelke ravenske Forme vive nasploh.
Lokacija: Ravne na Koroškem (veduta nad trškim jedrom), material: masivne varjene jeklene plošče Železarne Ravne.
Monumental in scale and visual expression, this sculpture stands emblematically at an exceptional vantage point on the periphery of the town, overlooking the historic market street of Ravne that extends dozens of meters below.
The raw, jagged contour of this stark yet evocative work acts like an archetypal radar probing antiquity, touching upon primal realms of spiritual awareness. Its form feels almost violently hewn from the dense matrix of massive, several-decimeter-thick steel slabs. The bold, uninhibited scope of execution elevates Basaldella's sculpture among the most accomplished creations of the entire Ravne Forma Viva symposium.
Location: Ravne na Koroškem (promontory overlooking the historic center), material: heavy welded steel plates from the Ravne Steelworks.
