Synopsis
Design from the Alps tells the story of a century of product design in Italy’s northernmost regions Alto Adige—or South Tyrol, as it is alternately known—and Trentino as well as and the Austrian state of Tyrol. Located along ancient trade routes that served Germany, Austria, and northern Italy, the transnational Alpine region boasts a rich local tradition of craftsmanship. Yet, since the 1920s, the region has also been remarkably open to European modernism’s most progressive movements and has become an unexpected space for exploration and innovation.
Highlighting the variety of innovations that have emerged in South Tyrol, the book includes features on futurist painter and graphic designer Fortunato Depero (1892–1960), pioneering interwar architect Gino Pollini (1903–91), and celebrated architects and designers Lois Welzenbacher (1889–1955), Clemens Holzmeister (1886–1983), and Ettore Sottsas (1917–2007), among many others. Lavishly illustrated, the book follows these and other artists and designers working within the region and offers an insightful tour of its multifaceted design culture.

Buch. Condition: Neu. Neuware - Over centuries, the transnational Alpine region Tyrol-Alto Adige / South Tyrol-Trentino has developed along ancient trade routes between Germany and Austria on one and northern Italy on the other side of the Alps. Similar to the region's modern and contemporary architecture, its product design is in many cases rooted in a rich local tradition of craftsmanship. Yet since the 1920s, this multilingual region has also proven its remarkable openness to European modernism's most progressive movements and become an unexpected laboratory for technical and formal exploration in the middle of the continent. Design from the Alps, published to coincide with an exhibition at museum Kunst Meran in autumn 2019, tells the story of a century of product design from Tyrol-South Tyrol-Trentino, highlighting the vast variety of discoveries and innovations that have emerged there. Featured artists include, among others, Fortunato Depero (1892-1960), whose experiments were inspired by the Secondo Futurismo, Gino Pollini (1903-91), a pioneer of the interwar period, as well as the celebrated architects and designers Lois Welzenbacher (1889-1955), Clemens Holzmeister (1886-1983), and Ettore Sottsas (1917-2007). Lavishly illustrated, the book follows the many protagonists of this at the same time heterogenous and collectively strong scene and offers an insightful tour d'horizon of the manifaceted design culture of western Austria and northern Italy.; Die Alpenregion Tirol - Südtirol - Trentino hat sich über die Jahrhunderte als Kulturraum am Kreuzungspunkt zwischen München und Venedig einerseits und Wien und Mailand andererseits entwickelt. Design from the Alps erscheint anlässlich einer Ausstellung im Museum Kunst Meran im Herbst 2019 und erzählt das faszinierende Abenteuer der Produktgestaltung in dieser Region, die sich erstaunlich offen und aufnahmefähig für die fortschrittlichsten Strömungen der Moderne zeigte. Sie wurde dadurch zu einem unerwarteten Labor für technisch-formale Erkundungen im Herzen Europas. Das weite Spektrum an Entdeckungen und Innovationen bildet sich im Buch ab. Es reicht von den Experimenten eines Fortunato Depero im Secondo Futurismo über Pioniere wie Gino Pollini in der Zwischenkriegszeit und berühmte Designer wie Lois Welzenbacher, Clemens Holzmeister und Ettore Sottsass bis in die unmittelbare Gegenwart. Das reich illustrierte Buch spürt den zahlreichen Akteuren dieser heterogenen und doch kollektiv starken Szene nach und lässt einen eintauchen in die vielfältige Welt des norditalienischen Designs.
