Page "Costantino Nivola" Paragraph 4

In Sassari, with the painter Mario Delitala, also from Orani, Nivola had his artistic start, and soon the two worked together for the decoration of some spaces in the local university. He then moved to the Italian mainland, and in 1931 entered the ISIA, the state institute for Artistic Industry in Monza, near Milan.

His first official exhibitions are recorded in this period ; among many works, notably he produced some xylography, a form of art that would have remained a characteristic expression of Sardinia.
