## About Alessio Tasca

Alessio Tasca (1929–2020) was an Italian designer, ceramist, and sculptor. Authority records give his dates as 13 August 1929 to 28 January 2020 and connect the same identity across Wikidata, VIAF, IdRef, and national library identifiers. His documented professional profile places him at the intersection of ceramic practice, object design, and sculpture; the collected sources do not establish a specific movement or school. Bibliographic authority records associate Tasca with publications and exhibition catalogues devoted to Italian ceramics, including a 1985 group catalogue, a 1990s Hetjens-Museum record, the title “Terre rare,” and a 2010 volume prepared for his eightieth year. Collectors may therefore encounter his name in ceramic, design, or sculptural cataloguing contexts. Because the source pack is authority-heavy but visually and market-detail poor, individual objects still require careful object-level documentation before stronger conclusions about authorship, chronology, or market comparability.

## Common works and media

The documented record most clearly supports ceramic works, designed objects, and sculpture. The available sources do not identify recurring subjects, named production series, specific vessel forms, print editions, paintings, drawings, or posters, so those categories should not be attributed to Tasca without additional object-level evidence. Auction records should be grouped by the work type actually documented for each object rather than by an assumed signature style.

## Market and appraisal context

The collected evidence supports ceramics, design objects, and sculpture as reasonable starting categories for researching Alessio Tasca in an auction or appraisal setting. It does not establish which category appears most frequently or commands stronger results. The source pack contains stable identity records but no usable lot descriptions, realized prices, provenance histories, condition reports, dimensions, or edition details. An appraisal should therefore begin by matching the object and its documentation to the correct artist identity, then compare it with relevant public sales only when sufficiently similar records are available. The available evidence does not support a price forecast, market-trend claim, or assumption that every object bearing the name has been authenticated.

## Appraisily data basis

Appraisily artist pages combine researched identity records with auction records, auction-house context, sale dates, realized prices, and comparable lots when those records are available. For Alessio Tasca, this source pack provides stronger authority evidence than lot-level market evidence.
