Hardback. Condition: New. A 'global' designer since his early years, Sergio Asti (1926-2021) has been involved on different fronts: architecture, installations, interiors, and product design, exploring various types- complements, ceramic coverings, lighting, textiles, furnishing, technical products and tableware -and the application of different materials, including plastics, ceramics, glass, crystal, porcelain, marble. As a designer, he was among the first to grapple with the problems of standardisation without neglecting the development of a critical thinking that asserts the right to expressiveness in every creation. The volume, which follows up on the initiative of Fragile by Alessandro Padoan and Alessandro Palmaghini, continues the series of publications dedicated to Italian design, enhancing the varied production of Sergio Asti, a protagonist to be re-discovered, both as a designer and as an intellectual and critic, proposing a first systematisation of his activity.Sergio Asti (Milan, 1926-2021), trained as an architect at the Politecnico di Milano, collaborated with leading companies and designed objects that have become icons of Italian design, such as the Profiterolle lamp for Martinelli Luce, the Marco vase for Salviati - winner of the Compasso d'Oro in 1962 -and the Trifoglio table for Poltronova. His works, exhibited in national and international museums and exhibitions, are today increasingly sought after by international collectors.Text in English and Italian.…

Dal 1951 a metà degli anni ottanta, per oltre trent'anni, egli è il fotografo dei maggiori architetti e designer italiani. La sua prolungata collaborazione con la rivista internazionale "Domus" lo mette in luce quale testimone negli anni in cui l'Italia viene attraversata dall'onda della modernizzazione, periodo caratterizzato da un forte entusiasmo per i nuovi stili di vita, per il nascente mercato dei consumi di massa, per le trasformazioni architettoniche pubbliche e private che plasmano nuovi contesti. Il sottotitolo della mostra, Paesaggi pubblici e privati, fa riferimento alla costruzione della nuova società, urbana e sociale, che si esprime nell'immaginario domestico, rappresentativo, produttivo e umano interpretato dalla fotografia. I materiali del Fondo Giorgio Casali, conservati presso l'Archivio Progetti dell'Università Iuav di Venezia (centoventimila fra lastre e negativi, oltre a una corposa documentazione dell'attività dello studio con le carte personali), consentono di raccontare, secondo diversi tagli tematici, le trasformazioni dell'Italia nella fase del più intenso sviluppo. Le sue fotografie rappresentano quindi un corpus documentale di grande interesse per raccontare uno dei contesti più produttivi del paese in una fase di sperimentazione e cambiamento.
