biography
Mario Sironi was born in Sassari, specifically in Tempio Pausania, on May 12, 1885. Son of an engineer and architect, he moved to Rome at a young age where he began his artistic training at the Academy of Fine Arts. After briefly studying engineering, which he abandoned due to severe depression, he fully devoted himself to painting, coming into contact with important Futurist artists such as Umberto Boccioni and Giacomo Balla. He was among the founders of the Novecento Italiano movement in 1922, which promoted a modern classicism in art. Moving to Milan in 1919, Sironi developed the famous cycle of "Urban Landscapes," depicting gray, industrial cities with a strong sense of alienation and social critique.
In the 1930s, Sironi focused mainly on mural painting, theorizing the return to large-scale public decoration with the manifestos "Pittura murale" (1932) and "Manifesto della Pittura Murale" (1933). His monumental art played an important role in spreading Fascist ideology, with numerous public commissions in Rome and Milan. Despite his political alignment, his artistic production maintained a strong expressive and symbolic character. He was also a sculptor, architect, illustrator, set designer, and graphic artist, demonstrating rare versatility.
Throughout his life, Sironi participated in many national and international exhibitions, receiving honors such as being named an Academician of San Luca in 1956. He died in Milan on August 13, 1961, leaving a fundamental artistic legacy for the history of 20th-century Italian art. His work is today studied and appreciated for its ability to combine modernity and tradition, as well as for his commitment to monumental and public painting.
