ATTILIO PICCIRILLI
THE ITALIAN FACTOR
We are presently supporting the efforts of the Heritage Film Project to produce a one-hour documentary film about the contributions of Italian artisans and sculptors to the American Renaissance. The film focuses primarily on the accomplishments of the Piccirilli, a family of talented.
Tuscan sculptors. The Piccirilli carved hundreds of public monuments, including the seated Lincoln at the Lincoln Memorial in Washington, D.C.
Proposed Release: October 2024
THE ART OF JOY BROWN
Joy Brown's World explores the life and works of Joy Brown. The film takes us from Kent, Connecticut, to Shanghai and Okinawa, revealing previously unrecorded aspects of the traditional anagama wood-firing technic and the cast of monumental bronze works.
Expected release: October 2024
