All auctions / Contemporary Art / Francioni Mastromarino (1978) - We should all be feminists
Free shipping across Europe Francioni & Mastromarino – “We Should All Be Feminists” Original sculpture in geomalta and rice husk | Unique piece numbered 8 | 2025 Throughout their career Francioni Mastromarino have participated in prestigious international exhibitions, including: “Motifs of the Soul” in Pontedera “Looking for Monna Lisa,” where they presented a monumental sculpture: the world’s largest portrait of Leonardo da Vinci – over 5 meters tall with a diameter of about 4 meters – today in the Pavia collection and officially recognized as a city monument. The sculpture We Should All Be Feminists presented in this lot is the statement of Francioni Mastromarino’s artistic research. The carved face, with elegant and modern features, blends harmoniously with a hairstyle that evokes the greatness of classical eras. Between the hair, a stylized vulva appears as a symbolic diadem, highlighting the generative and spiritual power of the feminine. A distinctive element of their poetics, which merges aesthetics and message with refined audacity. A Title that is a manifesto We Should All Be Feminists is an invitation, an assertion, a warning. In a context still shaped by patriarchal archetypes, the work becomes a tool for reflection on the strength, courage, and complexity of feminine identity. The sculpture thus becomes a symbol of a new matriarchy: evolved, conscious, powerful. Woman, life, freedom. Francioni Mastromarino’s Venuses are rebellious poets, poets of sin!
