Interview with Romolo del Deo: Making Art that Endures

In this new episode on the Ideal Spaces Podcast, Flora and Ulrich talk to the acclaimed artist and master sculptor Romolo Del Deo about how to make art that stands the test of time. Taking a stand against the fast, momentary and disposable 'now' culture of the present, Romolo instead focuses on creating enduring, sustainable, 'long art' for the 21st century. He tells us how his sculpture is preoccupied with two major aesthetic sources of inspiration; a fascination with the artefacts washed up upon the ocean shores of his native Provincetown and a natural affinity with the archeological ruins of his Italianate background and training.
