Cosmo Campoli (March 21, 1922 – December 15, 1997)〔(Dedication of Restored "Bird of Peace" )〕 was a Chicago sculptor, specializing in strong, surreal bird and egg imagery. He was hampered in later years by bipolar disorder.〔Elizabeth Burke-Dain, "Cosmo Campoli" (obituary), ''New Art Examiner'', Volume 24, no. 6, March 1997, p. 11〕 ==Exhibits and Career== Cosmo Campoli exhibited a sculpture, "The Birth of Death", in the 1959 show, "Images of Man" at the Museum of Modern Art in New York, among other notable artists as Karel Appel, Leon Golub, and Alberto Giacometti.〔 However, at this time he also became "confused", as he put it, and his bipolar disorder manifested. Unable to keep up a steady pace of work, he nevertheless taught sculpture at the Institute of Design at Illinois Institute of Technology〔 and exhibited with the Chicago Imagists at the Hyde Park Art Center.〔Richard Vine, "Where the Wild Things Were", ''Art in America'', May 1997, pp. 98-111.〕 Campoli was given a major career retrospective at Chicago's Museum of Contemporary Art in 1971.〔 He was popular in his home neighborhood of Hyde Park, even having a dish, "Pasta Campoli" named after him at a local Thai restaurant.〔 His bronze sculpture, "Bird of Peace", can be seen near the Murray School in Nichols Park in Hyde Park.〔 抄文引用元・出典: フリー百科事典『 ウィキペディア（Wikipedia）』 ■ウィキペディアで「Cosmo Campoli」の詳細全文を読む スポンサード リンク
