Giuseppe entered a sculpture of a male torso which was admired for its detail and adherence to classical styling. This sculpture was taken to the Art Gallery in Pisa. The gallery owners were amazed with its detail and beauty and immediately offered Giuseppe a permanent position at their gallery. With his job in Pisa, Giuseppe's dream of studying art was now realized. He studied the Renaissance masterpieces and started to perfect his own style. He soon had admirers coming from far away to see his creations.
In 1975, the Florence Sculpture d'Arte offered him a position working exclusively for their studio. He was glad to accept as he was given complete artistic freedom. From that point forward he created beautiful masterpieces ranging from traditional Capodimonte styling to more contemporary creations.
Born in 1935 -2006, Giuseppe Armani passed away from a massive stroke. His beautiful creations continue to live on as a legacy to his artistic genius.
