Le sculture da viaggio di Munari
€20.00
VAT included
"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.
