Il secondo libro dell'aerografo

Guglielmo Ulrich (1904-1977), architetto, disegnatore, arredatore, pittore, è senz'altro uno dei personaggi più interessanti della storia del mobile moderno italiano. Compresa tra gli ultimi anni Venti e Settanta, la sua opera è parte fondamentale dell'evoluzione stessa della cultura architettonica italiana e della nascita stessa di un'identità del design italiano. Legato a Gio Ponti e a tutto quel gruppo che, gravitante intorno alla rivista "Domus", propugnava una forte modernizzazione del gusto e della casa, Ulrich seppe tuttavia mantenere un saldo rapporto con la tradizione e in particolare con quella borghese sette-ottocentesca, di cui fu elegante interprete moderno. Questa sua capacità di porre, in un momento di rottura generalizzata, un saldo rapporto tra storia e modernità, tra tradizione e innovazione, ne fa un personaggio che merita un posto da protagonista nella storia del design italiano ed europeo.

The first book to exclusively present Cleto Munari's latest creations in the field of the applied arts: a unique collection of art carpets. Cleto Munari was born in Gorizia and he lives and works in Vicenza. After meeting Carlo Scarpa in 1973, who encouraged him in his work, he decided to focus his attention on the area of industrial design, and began to work for some of the most important companies in the world. Constantly in search of original ideas, over the years he has tirelessly been engaged in analyzing and experimenting with both forms and material. In 1985 he opened a laboratory-studio-jeweler's, where, together with a group of worldclass architects, he designs and produces silver jewelry and other objects for avant-garde collections that truly represent historical revolutions in jewelry both in Italy and abroad, and have also led to the production of watches, pens and furniture. Cleto Munari's objects have entered the permanent collections of some of the world's top museums, including the Metropolitan Museum of Art and the Museum of Modern Art in New York. This book is the first to exclusively present Cleto Munari's latest creations in the field of the applied arts. After his jewelery, silverware, watches and furnishings, the great designer has involved ten other designers and artists in the creation of a unique collection of art carpets. Signed by Lawrence Ferlinghetti, Dario Fo, Mario Botta, Alessandro Mendini, Javier Mariscal, Ettore Mochetti, Deisa Centazzo, Sandro Chia, Mimmo Paladino and by Cleto Munari himself, these creations are full-fledged works of art and represent the high point of the skills and expertise of one of the greatest creative designers in the world, who has been designing and producing for over forty years.
