Genesis – The First Temptation” by Franco Castelluccio captures the primal moment of human awakening — the instant before choice, when knowledge and innocence hang in delicate balance. The sculpture’s powerful form reflects both strength and vulnerability, as the figure sits poised in contemplation, embodying the eternal conflict between spirit and desire. Through dynamic anatomy and masterful tension, Castelluccio invites the viewer to witness the birth of consciousness—a timeless meditation on humanity’s first moral crossroads.
