Korean artist wins prize from Italian sculpture town
Sculptor Park Eun Sun, who has worked in Italy for 25 years, was given an award by Pietrasanta, a town on the coast of northern Tuscany famous for marble sculptures and known as little Athens.
The Municipality of Pietrasanta announced on Oct. 28 that the 28th winner of the annual Fratelli Rosselli Award, which honors sculptors that promoted the city worldwide, is Park Eun Sun.
“Park has constantly worked internationally to build a bridge connecting the town, Italy and the world, and has contributed to the dynamics of the town’s art,” said Pietrasanta Mayor Alberto Stefano Giovannetti at the award ceremony on that day. It is the first time for a Korean to win the award.
