In this book, Bruno Munari describes, with great seriousness and attention to detail, machines... useful or useless, but certainly unusual: machines to predict the aurora, a lizard-powered engine for tired turtles, a machine to tame alarm clocks, a tail-wagger for lazy dogs...

Le Macchine di Munari is a poetic and ironic book that stands out for its inventiveness and creativity. Here, Munari showcases his ability to blend art, design, and education, presenting a series of imaginary machines inspired by the famous American cartoonist Rube Goldberg. Each machine, though entirely a product of fantasy, is designed with a sense of realism and functionality, reflecting Munari's deep understanding of the world of design.

Munari’s Machines – collected in this book first published by Einaudi in 1942 and now available again in the Corraini Edizioni catalog – are inventions as precise as they are impossible. Described and illustrated in the finest detail, they follow their own fantastic mechanics and, to our great delight, rebel against the obligation of having to serve a purpose.

"The travel sculptures were originally created as small pieces (some even pocket-sized) to carry around or to have a piece of one’s own culture in an anonymous hotel room. Later, they became large ‘travel’ sculptures in steel, five or six meters tall. One was exhibited for a few months in Cesenatico, others along the seafront in Naples. Still others rest among tall trees in South Tyrol." - Bruno Munari, Bruno Munari Group Exhibition

This is how Bruno Munari described his famous 'travel sculptures', which American illustrator and designer David A. Carter has reinterpreted in this pop-up book.

Carter himself describes it this way: "The book you are holding explores a particular aspect of Munari’s work: the travel sculptures. Munari was an extremely experimental artist, and I believe he created these sculptures by experimenting with paper and the many ways it can be folded. Most of these works are made of paper, like modern pop-up books, while others are made of wood, with leather inserts, and still others in metal. I hope you’ll love Bruno Munari’s travel sculptures as much as I do. And don’t forget to take this book with you on your travels."

Munari’s Travel Sculptures is a tribute to Bruno Munari’s creativity and his innovative approach to the book as a vehicle of communication—not only through text, but also through format, paper, and color.

The Epic of Gilgamesh is the oldest epic poem known to humanity, the earliest form of writing ever discovered, dating back over 4,000 years. The deeds of the Sumerian hero, inscribed on clay tablets, were uncovered in Iraq—ancient Mesopotamia—the land of rivers where the first human civilizations were born, and where, in the ancient city of Nineveh, the first library in history was established.

Gianni Rodari and Bruno Munari have always paid close attention to the world of childhood, united by a shared desire to free images and words, helping us discover the joy of invention, imagination, and creativity.

By combining seemingly opposite and distant elements, imagining unexpected syntheses and solutions, they gave new meanings to letters and signs, pursuing parallel paths for years that also converged in books such as Filastrocche in cielo e in terra, Favole al telefono, Il pianeta degli alberi di Natale, Il libro degli errori, La torta in cielo, Il gioco dei quattro cantoni, and C’era due volte il barone Lamberto.

In the illustrations created for Rodari, Bruno Munari manages, with his lightness and unmistakable style, to recreate the same poetry found in Rodari’s stories and rhymes, enriching their fantastical side and their ability to amaze.

In this book, a rich selection of Munari’s “signs” is accompanied—not only by quotes from various Rodari books—but also by a testimony from Antonio Faeti and unpublished texts by Riccardo Falcinelli and Marco Belpoliti. These texts explore how Munari’s drawings fit into the history of children’s illustration, focusing on their reception and their nature as “doodles.”

A book to read and look at, to complete with your own “crooked signs and scribbles” or, on the contrary, to use as a starting point to invent new stories, letting yourself be inspired by the images.
