"I have never believed in foundations that celebrate a single artist as unique. The artist is part of a cultural tissue; his active contribution can never be lost and that is why I conceived my foundation as an active and living place of cultural elaboration, as well as a center of documentation of my work, capable of making original proposals and not just passive preservation. But the best must be yet to come: this has only been a beginning and in my intentions the project –aimed at young people and the future – must take root, make continuity an inescapable element…"
–Arnaldo Pomodoro 

The Foundation, born from this vision and strong in the direction traced by Arnaldo Pomodoro over the course of thirty years, operates according to the will of the founder, guaranteeing the preservation and enhancement of his work, committing itself to disseminating its material and immaterial heritage through the creation of exhibitions, events and initiatives in an inventive, almost experimental space of study and confrontation on the themes of art and sculpture, which aims at an involvement, deep and global, with people and society.
