Piero Fornasetti
Piero Fornasetti is often described as a visionary. A Milan artist, Fornasetti was at the same time a painter, sculptor, designer, craftsman, and an engraver of art books. In his lifetime, he created more than 11,000 items, most of which are one-of-a kind. It is actually said that his production of objects and furniture is one of the largest in the 20th century. Perpetuating the workshop tradition today is his son Barnaba, who has revived his most popular pieces and created new ones. In an illustrated Memoire devoted to Piero Fornasetti's work, the book critically discusses his contribution to 20th century art and design.

This elaborate volume, authored by the designer’s son, is a splendid celebration of one of the world’s most inventive design minds. Combining whimsy and elegance, Piero Fornasetti (1913–1988) transformed everyday objects like cups, scarves, and screens into works of art featuring his idiosyncratic leitmotifs, such as the hand, the female face, and luminescent fish. Additionally, he created a wide range of works, including idealized architectural fantasy drawings, book designs, and provocative nudes, as well as the decor for the luxury liner Andrea Doria. Perhaps most famous for dazzling pieces of trompe l’oeil furniture, Fornasetti was rediscovered in the 1980s and has remained much ...
Fornasetti
The imaginative universe of Piero Fornasetti, an iconic figure of Italy’s economic boom, and the creative continuity of his son Barnaba. Piero Fornasetti started his business in the immediate postwar period, when in 1947—encouraged by Gio Ponti, who first sensed his talent—he presented ceramics at the eighth Milan Triennale. In the early 1950s, together with Ponti, he created the furnishings for the great Italian transatlantic liners, a fruitful collaboration that would give him great visibility.

Piero Fornasetti
An extensive illustrated survey of one of the most inventive design minds of the twentieth century. Combining whimsy and elegance, Piero Fornasetti transformed everyday objects like cups, scarves, and plates into much sought-after works of art with his idiosyncratic motifs, such as the hand, the female face, and luminescent fish. His dazzling pieces of trompe l’oeil furniture, created in collaboration with Gio Ponti, are also highly prized by collectors worldwide. Fornasetti’s boundless imagination is celebrated here in a book published to document a major retrospective exhibition at the Musée des Arts Décoratifs in Paris. The first half of the monograph is organized by type and includes Fornasetti’s paintings, drawings, and furniture. The second half focuses on favorite themes: his use of trompe l’oeil, architectural drawings, and his variations on the face of a famous operatic beauty. Featuring 400 illustrations covering almost fifty years of a protean and prolific designer and artist like no other, this is a must-have for Fornasetti connoisseurs and anyone interested in design.

Piero Fornasetti
Piero Fornasetti (1913-1988), artiste milanais à la fois peintre, sculpteur, décorateur d'intérieur, graveur, est souvent présenté comme un visionnaire. Prolifique tout au long de son parcours, ce créateur atypique a réalisé plus de onze mille objets, décors et meubles, dont beaucoup sont uniques. Son imagination, héritée d'une forte culture italienne et d'inspiration surréaliste, se répand sur tous les supports possibles, verres, assiettes, parapluies, lampes, meubles, paravents... constituant une oeuvre singulière, tout à fait poétique. Aujourd'hui, son fils Barnaba Fornasetti perpétue l'oeuvre familiale en reproduisant des modèles de son père, mais conçoit aussi les siens propres. Cet ouvrage richement illustré revient sur l'importance de l'oeuvre de Fornasetti dans l'art et le design du XXe siècle. A cette occasion, Barnaba Fornasetti se prête à une conversation avec Philippe Starck, inconditionnel depuis toujours du grand maître italien
