Rosa dei Venti Table by Mario Ceroli is an original contemporary Artwork realized in Italy in the late 20th Century by Mario Ceroli. Mario Ceroli (Castel Frentano, 1938) is an Italian sculptor and scenographer. He studied at the Academy of Fine Arts in Rome, under the guidance of Leoncillo Leonardi and Pericle Fazzini, Ettore Colla, whose assistant he became, directed his interest in ceramic works and initially reproduced ceramic sculptures. In 1957 he experimented with the use of wood, mainly tree trunks pierced by nails, with which in 1958 he won the prize for young Italian sculpture. At the end of the 1950s, wood became his favorite expressive material. In 1997 he donated to his town of origin, Castel Frentano, a copy of the wooden sculpture The Vitruvian Man and placed it in the Piazzale della Concezione. In 2007 he was called by the Palazzo delle Esposizioni in Rome to participate in its official reopening, after long years of renovations, with a selection of his main works.
