Florence with
its monuments is the inspiring muse of Roberto Benedetti. It's
really possible that Roberto pursues, in the materials used for his objects, the colors that he sees around
himself to harmonize them in sketches and forms to propose in his final
creations. |
|
|
| For example, one of the materials that
he uses for decorating a particular model of frame is the lapislazzulo, blue and conflicting:
just as this sky opposes with the green of the Avenue of the Necks, that
leads to the Piazzale Michelangelo. |

We have seen the determination
with which he looks for a particular color in the material to use, because the colors have to be "those" to be able to represent
his idea of the "beautiful."
In conclusion, we want to say that the technique of inlays with
marbles, bone, semi-precious stones, with the application of friezes in bronze and
silver, is typically a form of artistic craftsmanship in the best
Florentine tradition.

The realized objects are rich of colors harmonized among them, harmony that is the result of a study of the materials and the range of tonality that each of them
can offer. The choice happens after having thought the object of to realize; it finally begins the
research of the pieces of materials that the desired cromies offer, personally going to the
caves closed since the end of the '800, as for this chest whose marble "red of
Collemandina", as in commerce the tonality of red that adapts to express the inspiration of Roberto
Benedetti was not found elsewhere.
