An exhibition of works by Costantino Nivola (1911-1988), a Sardinian sculptor who emigrated to New York in 1938 and bought 35 acres in Springs in the 1940s, will open Friday at the Drawing Room in East Hampton and continue through Sept. 16.

The show focuses on carved concrete sculptures, sandcast reliefs, a polychrome fresco from the 1950s and ‘60s, and the classic marble and bronze forms the artist created in the ‘80s. His approach to each medium, says the gallery, “is unified by his iconic distillation of the human form in timeless abstractions.”

Many of Nivola’s monumental reliefs and sculptures that were commissioned in collaboration with leading Modernist architects have been preserved on public buildings throughout the United States.
