KOOL. A Type Specimen€35.00
KOOL. A Type Specimen is an artist’s book built around KOOL (“cabbage” in Dutch), a new font designed by Reus in collaboration with Antonio de la Hera and Kia Tasbihgou. Halfway between a vegetal alphabet and concrete poetry, the KOOL font includes 26 lowercase letters, 26 uppercase letters, a full set of numbers, 16 punctuation marks, and 6 symbols. It is the result of a three-year research project by the artist, focused on the visual and calligraphic relationship between red cabbage scraps and the letters of the Latin alphabet. The book created by Reus to present the font takes inspiration from the traditional format of the type specimen book—the sample book used by type foundries to showcase the wide range of graphic possibilities, layouts, and configurations of a new typeface.

This volume traces a path that explores the lesser-known aspects of Arnaldo Pomodoro's work, presenting mostly unpublished material from his archive.
An itinerary that allows us to examine the constant relationship in the artist's research between micro-dimension, the one linked above all to the design and creation of artist's jewelry, and macro-dimensional interventions of an architectural and landscape nature.
Arnaldo Pomodoro: il movimento possibile gathers together for the first time a set of previously unpublished works created from the second half of the 1950s onwards, offering the reader a unique opportunity to explore the artist's beginnings and the most important stages of his career, accounting for friendships and collaborations with poets such as Paolo Volponi, Attilio Bertolucci and Emilio Villa.Arnaldo Pomodoro: il movimento possibile, curated by Alberto Salvadori and realized in collaboration with the Arnaldo Pomodoro Foundation, stems from the exhibition held at Galleria Cortesi in Palazzo Morigi, Milan.

Arnaldo Pomodoro. The Great Theatre of Civilizations€72.00 €90.00
Catalogue of the exhibition Arnaldo Pomodoro. The Great Theatre of Civilizations, curated by Lorenzo Respi and Andrea Viliani.
Published in collaboration with FENDI, the volume Arnaldo Pomodoro. The Great Theatre of Civilizations is an immersive journey into the work of the greatest Italian sculptor of the second half of the 20th century. The book itself is conceived as a sculpture.
In a large format, it is made of luxurious materials and fitted within a perforated and die-cut slipcase that recalls the silhouette of the Palazzo della Civiltà Italiana, the iconic historic building which is both a symbol of the EUR district and the headquarters of the FENDI maison.
Arnaldo Pomodoro. The Great Theatre of Civilizations unfolds as a great “theatre” at once real and imaginary, historical and imaginative. It presents a selection of works from the late 1950s to the present day, along with largely unpublished documentary material exploring the extensive relationship between spheres of action pertaining to the visual and performing arts in the artist’s life. Here evanescent traces of possible “civilisations” emerge – archaic, ancient, modern, or simply fictional civilizations. In their interweaving, they provide a rich archaeology, constantly redefining our knowledge, imagination, conception of time and space, history and myth, and our relationship with other species and nature.
Produced in collaboration with Fondazione Arnaldo Pomodoro and published on the occasion of the remarkable exhibition in Rome, this book is no mere exhibition catalogue, but rather a lavish volume enriched with considerable archive material that makes it a valuable reference source on the artist’s work and an essential tool for scholars and collectors.

Jannis Kounellis - Atto Unico€40.00
Catalogue published on the occasion of the exhibition held at the Foundation: "Jannis Kounellis - Atto Unico" (September 24, 2006 - February 11, 2007) curated by Bruno Corà.
Conceived in the form of a vast plastic organism, this great creation by Jannis Kounellis bears in its central axis a morphological concatenation resulting from a single emotional design. At the basis of this imaginary structuring is the labyrinthine spatial layout that drags everything with it into its enigmatic figure of mythical destiny.On this system, in which the metamorphic rule supports the entire poetic tension, Kounellis traces his "fresco" in space, with a "spotted" dramaturgy that affects, together with the place and the city, the problematic current affairs of an entire history, approached with the tools of an emblematic language that does not renounce its constructive dream and the idea of a possible development of its imaginary premises.

Tutto è felice nella vita dell'arte. Omaggio a Giovanni Carandente€5.00 €10.00
Catalogue published on the occasion of the exhibition held at the Foundation: "Tutto è felice nella vita dell'arte" (September 30 - December 11, 2015) curated by Luciano Caprile and Stefano Esengrini.

Smith, Moore, Calder, Chillida, and Caro are just some of the artists whom Carandente insightfully interpreted over the course of five decades. In collaboration with Palazzo Collicola Arti Visive Spoleto – Carandente Museum, the exhibition aims to retrace the key stages of an adventure that began in 1962 in Spoleto, during the fifth Festival of Two Worlds, when 102 works by leading Italian and international sculptors were installed throughout the city’s streets and squares, giving rise to a groundbreaking open-air sculpture exhibition.
