Ceramic Owl Head By Aldo Londi For Bitossi, Italy, 1950s

Ceramic owl head by Aldo Londi for Bitossi, Italy, 1950s.

Aldo Bitossi (1911-2003), a renowned Italian painter and sculptor, constantly sought to create and innovate his ceramic works, making him the father of modern Italian ceramics. Aldo Londi's blue is inimitable.

This owl is one of his creations from his time working at the Bitossi factory, where he served as artistic director from 1946 to 1976. This inimitable "flayed" style on the ceramics was inspired by his travels in Africa, particularly in Ethiopia. A true aesthete, Aldo Londi forever modernized Italian ceramics, earning him international success, even in the United States.

Iconic among his creations, this owl head is a jewel from the era when Bitossi was led by a pioneering ceramicist.
