THE NEW "HAFLINGER HORSE OF STREMBO" by MARCO MARTALAR

After the Winged Dragon of Lavarone, in Alpe Cimbra (province of Trento), the She-Wolf of Lagorai, the Vaia Eagle (near Grigno) and the Vaia Griffon of Tesino, here is another incredible work by the artist, this time in Val Redena in Trentino: the Haflinger Horse of Strembo. Like Marco Martalar's other works, the Haflinger Horse was also built with the wood of trees felled by the Vaia storm which destroyed a large part of the woods of Trentino and Veneto on the night of 29 October 2018. Built with over 2000 pieces of larch, is the largest wooden horse in Europe. What makes it special? its 7 meters high and 5 meters long, its 1800 screws and the hard 3 months of work. As the sculptor writes: "The idea of ​​creating a horse was born over a year ago with the meeting between me and a group of Haflinger enthusiasts, a magnificent breed bred in Val Rendena, in memory of the peasant world, and today used for multiple purposes. It was a long job with considerable complications due to the fact that the horse is prancing, that is, rearing up and resting only on three points on the ground, but the satisfaction was truly great." Be careful though because the work will not last forever, the wood used, in fact, has not been treated and is therefore destined to disappear.

The Haflinger Horse of Strembo is not the first work of this genre created by the hands of the artist Marco Martalar. In 2020, in Mezzaselva di Roana on the Altopiano dei Sette Comuni, where he lives, Marco created a Winged Lion with 1500 pieces of shrubs and trees felled by Vaia, which became the largest Winged Lion in the world, three meters high and 4 meters long, 5. Immediately afterwards the artist achieved incredible success thanks to the Drago di Vaia, in Lavarone, "a majestic work, symbol of resilience and courage", the Lupa del Lagorai inaugurated in 2022, the Aquila Vaia, inaugurated in 2023, and at the Grifone Vaia del Tesino, inaugurated in 2023.
