100 years of Piero Fornasetti’s ‘Practical Madness’ in Milan, Italy
Dai Confini del Solito from Fornasetti on Vimeo.
Last week, 4 paid a visit to the Piero Fornasetti Exhibition at Milan’s La Triennale di Milano Gallery.
Starting his career as a painter, Fornasetti’s fantasy-driven flair for drawing, painting and sketching was central to his development as a designer and later as a pioneer of ornamentation.
The exhibition showcases much of his vast output with a number of previously unseen objects, sketches and 2d/3d collages on display.
Fornasetti is exclusive to 4.

‘Piero Fornasetti: 100 Years of Practical Madness’ runs until February 9th, 2014 at the La Triennale di Milano.
