Kosta Angeli Radovani (London, 1916 – Zagreb, 2002) trained at the Brera Academy in Milan, taught by Francesco Messina, with whom he collaborated on the making of some monuments. The Milan training was there in Radovani’s endeavour to arrive at a sculptural language as clean as possible. Aristide Maillol and Charles Despiau were also at the foundations of Radovani’s understanding of modern art, and the work of Italian contemporaries Arturo Martini, Giacomo Manzu and Marino Marini was also formative. In the early sixties there was a breakthrough of geometry into Radovani’s sculpture, and after 1966 he started a cycle of nude figures constructed of conical, spherical and cylindrical elements, and replaced the organic and plastic principle with the principle of construction.
