Joe Colombo (Milano, 1930-1971) è stato uno dei più grandi designer del XX secolo, visionario e geniale, capace di dare forma a idee che colpiscono ancora oggi per la loro attualità. Formatosi dapprima all’Accademia di Brera e poi al Politecnico di Milano, Joe Colombo ha espresso, in soli vent’anni, una visione del mondo innovativa, che ponendo al centro della riflessione l’uomo e la sua vita immaginava un habitat dinamico e trasformabile sia su scala domestica che urbanistica. Una progettazione, la sua, a tutto tondo, volta a soddisfare ogni esigenza grazie alla tecnologia e ai nuovi materiali, e a plasmare lo spazio e i suoi oggetti in funzione delle diverse attività lavorative e di interazione sociale. Da qui, i complementi di arredo modulari e dinamici dalle linee futuristiche, tra i quali spiccano alcuni pezzi divenuti iconici del design italiano come la lampada Acrilica (medaglia d’oro alla XIII Triennale del 1964), la Tube Chair (oggi al Musée des Arts Décoratifs del Louvre), la lampada Spider (Compasso d’Oro nel 1967), il carrello Boby (premio S.M.A.U. nel 1971) e i “monoblocchi polifunzionali”, come Minikitchen (medaglia d’argento alla XIII Triennale del 1964) fino al Total Furnishing Unit del MoMA di New York. Questo volume di Ignazia Favata, sua storica assistente dal 1968, accompagnato dal saggio critico di Domitilla Dardi, costituisce il primo catalogo ragionato del suo lavoro, di cui sono documentati 200 progetti, con particolare rilievo dato alle opere ancora in produzione da cinquant’anni.

Joe Colombo (Milan, 1930-1971) was one of the greatest designers of the last century, visionary and ingenious, capable of giving shape to ideas that retain a striking relevance to this day. Trained first at the Brera Academy and then at the Polytechnic of Milan, Joe Colombo has expressed, in just twenty years of work, an absolutely innovative world view, which placing man and his life at the center of reflection, imagined a dynamic and transformable habitat both on a domestic and urban scale. A design in the round, aimed at satisfying every need - also thanks to technology and new materials - and to shape the space and its objects according to the different activities of the moment, be they working or social interactions. From here, the modular and dynamic furnishing accessories with futuristic lines, among which some pieces that have become iconic of Italian design stand out such as the Tube Chair, the Spider lamp (Compasso d'Oro 1967) or the Boby trolley (now at the MoMA in New York), the "monoblocks", such as the Mini-Kitchen or the Total Table with integrated dishes, up to the global housing unit, a visionary "machine", which encompasses all the needs of living. This volume constitutes the first catalog raisonné of his work, of which about 180 projects are documented, divided between works still in production and historical works; introduced by the essays by Ignazia Favata - his historical collaborator - and Domitilla Dardi, it is completed by a critical anthology.

Buch. Condición: Neu. Neuware - The latest in Silvana's catalogues raisonnés on Italian design appraises the 'total design' ethos of Joe ColomboThe Tube Chair, the Spider lamp and the Boby trolley (now in the collection of MoMA in New York); the 'Monoblocks,' such as the Mini-Kitchen or the Total Table with its integrated dishes; the beautiful global housing unit, a visionary 'machine' that aims to encompass all the needs of living--these and other icons of Italian design by the brilliant visionary Milanese designer Joe Colombo expressed a total vision of living that was characteristic of his time. This volume--part of Silvana's series on 20th-century Italian design masters (with previous titles on Sarfatti, Parisi and Arredoluce)--constitutes the first catalogue raisonné of Colombo's work. Around 180 projects are documented, divided between works still in production and historical works, for companies such as Oluce, Kartell, Bieffe, Alessi, Flexform and Boffi. Essays by Ignazia Favata--Colombo's longterm collaborator--and Domitilla Dardi are completed by a critical anthology. Joe Colombo was born in Milan in 1930. In the early 1950s he worked as an artist, exhibiting alongside Enrico Baj, Lucio Fontana and Roberto Matta, also joining the Concrete art movement. He began to devote himself to design in 1960. In 1962 he opened a design studio in Milan, receiving architectural and design commissions. Among his best-known works are his Kartell chair of 1965; the Spider lamp (winner of the Golden Compass award in 1967); and his halogen light of 1970. Colombo died in 1971; he was posthumously included in MoMA's 1972 show Italy--New Domestic Landscape. Nº de ref. del artículo: 9788836646333
