MARINO MARINI
20th Century Artists
Bath
Marini’s great subject was the horse and rider, a theme he returned to time and time again. He saw the relationship as representing the tensions between man and nature, or reason and sensuality. This theme was also linked to theatricality: Marini would often feature dancers, jugglers and acrobats in his work, such as in the 'Grande Teatro delle Maschere' portfolio.
