Additional Information
Designer: Gino Sarfatti
Gino Sarfatti (1912 - 1985) was an Italian designer. After classical studies, he attended the University of Aeronaval Engineering in Genoa. He frequents Franco Albini, Lucio Fontana, Lica and Albe Steiner. In February 1939 he founded Arteluce Società Anonima A.L. After the first bombings on Milan, the production activity moved near Lecco, therefore, to escape racial persecution, he had to expatriate to Switzerland, where he lives in a convent of nuns near Lugano. Arteluce, during the war years, remains active. In 1946, on his return, he opened a small workshop, but in 1950 he founded the company ArCon (Contemporary Furniture) in Rome, which markets brands of excellence in furniture and is immediately successful. In 1973, the year in which he won the gold medal of the XV Triennale, he sold the company.Find out more about Gino Sarfatti with our insights:
