Add to basketNeuware -Gio Ponti (Mailand 1891-1979) war eine Schlüsselfigur des italienischen Modernismus; es ist unmöglich, sein Vermächtnis auf ein einzelnes kreatives Feld zu beschränken. Von 1923 bis 1930 war Ponti künstlerischer Leiter des heute legendären italienischen Geschirrherstellers Richard Ginori. 1928 gründete er die international renommierte Zeitschrift «Domus», die er - abgesehen von einer Unterbrechung in den 1940er Jahren - für den Rest seines Lebens leitete. In der Nachkriegszeit prägte Ponti gemeinsam mit seinen Mitarbeitern Antonio Fornaroli und Albert Rosselli das architektonische Bild von Mailand, sie waren aber auch weltweit tätig, von Caracas über Teheran und Denver bis nach Islamabad und Eindhoven. Dieses Buch befasst sich mit den vielen Komponenten von Pontis Wirken im 20. Jahrhundert und verfolgt seinen anhaltenden Einfluss in Italien und auf der ganzen Welt.

The bestselling volume on the multifaceted career of one of the leading figures in Italian Modernism, now in English
Gio Ponti (1891-1979) was a giant of Italian Modernism, contributing to a multitude of fields: architecture, industrial design, furniture design, education, art criticism and publishing. From 1923 to 1930, Ponti served as the artistic director of the now cult Italian tableware manufacturer Richard Ginori. In 1928, he founded the internationally renowned magazine Domus, which, apart from a break in the 1940s, he continued to direct for the rest of his life. In the postwar era, Ponti and his associates Antonio Fornaroli and Alberto Rosselli shaped the architectural image of Milan but were also active across the globe from Caracas to Tehran, Denver, Islamabad and Eindhoven.
More Than One: Gio Ponti delves into the many components of Ponti's creative contribution to the 20th century and traces his enduring influence in Italy and across the globe. Infused with intellectual heft, the volume presents an array of new scholarship on Ponti's work. The editors, Manfredo di Robilant and Manuel Orazi, contextualize his work amid the social, economic and aesthetic developments of his time. Professional photographs of his work share space with archival ephemera and Ponti's own preparatory sketches.
