Leoncillo Leonardi (18 November 1915 – 3 September 1968), commonly known as Leoncillo, was an Italian sculptor who worked principally in glazed ceramics, often large-scale, and often using vivid colours. Until the mid-1950s his work was mostly figurative, but became more abstract thereafter.[1] In 1946 he was among the founding members of the Nuova Secessione Artistica Italiana, which soon became the Fronte Nuovo delle Arti.[2] He received the Premio Faenza in 1954 and again in 1964,[3] and won the sculpture prize at the Biennale di Venezia of 1968.[1] His work was also part of the sculpture event in the art competition at the 1948 Summer Olympics.[4]
