Marino Marini is an Italian artist known for his equestrian figurative sculptures. Throughout his life he was interested in the theme of the horse and the rider whose arms are arranged on either side of the animal, as in The Angel of the City (1948). He is also noted for his expressive busts with sad and abstract faces as well as his paintings reminiscent of horseback riding. Born February 27, 1901 in Pistoia, Italy, he studied painting at the Accademia di Belle Arti in Florence, then turned to sculpture just after graduation. In 1936 he received the Rome Quadrennial Prize and his work was included in the works presented in the framework of Italian art at MoMA in New York. A solo exhibition took place at the Curt Valentin Gallery in 1950, where he befriended Alexander Calder and Jean Arp. Marini died on August 6, 1980 in Viareggio, Italy, and the Marino Marini Museum opened in Florence in 1988.

Here in México City, at the entrance of one of major skyscrapers, is a little garden; in the middle of it, a sculpture of a rider in rejoice, even though he lacks of face and arms, over a very calm, very antique (like a etruscan monument) horse. I know who made it, and I´m happy that it takes me only 15 minutes from my home to see it.
