Bruno Giorgi (13 August 1905, Mococa – 7 September 1993, Rio de Janeiro)[1] was a Brazilian sculptor, who worked within Brazilian modernism. He was from a small town in the interior of São Paulo state called Mococa. Although born in Brazil he spent much of his youth in Europe as his family returned to Italy when he was age six, and he did not return to Brazil until 1939. His works are displayed at several national sites.
