Bruno Munari (Milan 1907-1998) is one of the great names of XX century Italian design and culture. He was one of the protagonists of art and creative design from the thirties - with the invention of the "useless machines" and of the work of editorial graphic which was absolutely new in Europe - but he was recognised as one of the most active designers after the Second World War. Thanks to the cooperation with all the major Italian companies working for the recovery of the country and to a series of ingenious inventions, Bruno Munari is one of the key-characters of the successful period of Italian design.
On the occasion of the centenary of his birth (2007), and twenty years after the last major monographic exhibition (Palazzo Reale, Milan, 1987), a great show featuring over two hundred works pays homage to this artist.
The exhibition highlights not only the most renown works, as the projects of installations of the forties and fifties, the artistic interventions in the architectural field of the following decade, the graphic projects and the cooperation of some of the most important companies of Italian culture of the period after the Second World War (Einaudi, La Rinascente, Olivetti and Danese), but also some of the less known aspects of Munari's work, as his continuative cooperation with many Italian magazines specialized in design, communication and art.
The catalogue, completed by rich iconographic material, presents the ten sections in which the exhibition is organized, and it includes as well a biography and a bibliography.
