« Il voudrait, à toute force, n’avoir qu’à restaurer les lignes et rafraichir les couleurs d’un déjà-là qui serait déjà beau… il ne transforme les sites qu’en en prélevant des fragments… Il soustrait des petits coins du Paradis à la rapacité du Moloch. »
Pascal Urbain

The book aims to identify some extraordinary moments in the history of Italian artistic production, between the Middle Ages and the early modern age, in which artistic quality, the capacity for innovation and technical excellence were intertwined to produce consumer goods that, recognizable for their style and becoming fashionable, were exported to the rest of Europe. An exhibition that shows how Made in Italy was not born out of nothing in the 1970s, but had its roots in the artistic culture of Italy.

This book is based on a principle, on which the major protagonists of design agree: the best projects are not necessarily those passing by the Patent Office and originating in architecture and design agencies and that are created in front of computers in big companies, but, on the contrary, they are often those coming from the simplicity of everyday life thanks to the smart ideas of “common people”, of anonymous designer to whom Bruno Munari dedicated the “Golden compass award to unknown”.

This book, published to accompany an exhibition at Triennale in Milan, is an example of how a multidisciplinary approach can be used to examine and inform. Work clothes are transformed from uniforms and the symbols of a profession into the expression of an individual identity, but also into a form of cladding that is at times far removed from its original function.
[Authors: Corrado Benigni, Mauro Zanchi]
The book offers a profound reflection on Franco Fontana’s poetic imagery, focused on landscape and the enigma of the invisible within the visible. Through photography, Fontana explores the boundary between the real and the nonexistent, offering an analysis that goes beyond mere visual documentation, inviting a reevaluation of perception itself.
