Condition & notes

In very good condition with light bumping and creasing to edges and corners of ocvers and light overall scuffing. Binding tight. Pages clean and unmarked. NOT Ex-Library. NO remainder marks. The Unika Sculptor's Fair has taken place every year since 1994 in the tennis centre of Roncadizza near Ortisei. Local sculptors, barrel painters, gilders and numerous other craftsmen exhibit precious and unique pieces of art and give visitors the opportunity to talk first-hand with the sculptors and gain an insight into the centuries-old sculpting tradition in the Val Gardena! Motifs and styles vary greatly as the artists are allowed to work and express themselves the way they feel like. No limits are set, no restrictions are imposed. What characterises all pieces of art is the fact that they are all hand-carved and handmade. An officially-registered trademark brands all pieces of art. 2005 was also the first year that there was a special exhibition of artefacts created by woodcarving painters and guilders. Artists featured include: Lothar Dellago, Fabian Demetz, Hansi Demetz, Peter Demetz, Teo Mahlknecht, Siegfried Messner, Filip Doss Moroder, Gerald Moroder, Josef Zorz Mussner, Eric Perathoner, Helmut Perathoner, Roland Perathoner, Ivo Piaza, Giuseppe Rumerio, Alfons Runggaldier, Wilhelm Senoner, Egon Stuflesser, Christian Verginer, Matthias Verginer, Willy Verginer, Bruno Walpoth,
