Nod

Raimondi attended the Massachusetts College of Art where he studied sculpture. He exhibited early works at Boston City Hall, Bridgewater State College, and numerous local galleries and museums. This led to Raimondi's first prominent commission, awarded to him in a national competition conducted by the I-80 Bicentennial Sculpture Project, in Nebraska. This sculpture, entitled Erma's Desire, is named for the artist's mother and her intense desire for the happiness of her children.
