Description:

Born in Milan in 1912, Sassu started his artistic career at a very early age; already in 1927 he was exhibiting in a Futurist show at the Galleria Pesaro in Milan, while the following year he participated, at just 16 years old, in the Venice Biennale. In 1930 he moved past Futurism to Primativism, creating a series of male figures colored red, a deliberately anti-naturalistic choice. (Source: Wikipedia; http://en.wikipedia. org/wiki/Main_Page)
