Summary:
Dans ce cahier à dessiner, on pourra inventer son propre décor autour des personnages créés par Alessandro Sanna en dessinant des meubles dans l’esprit des ‘Ultramobili’ de Dino Gavina. Dino Gavina est une des grands designers italiens du XXe siècle. Dans les années 70, il a travaillé avec des artistes tels que Man Ray, Brancusi et Meret Oppenheim. Les ‘Ultramobili’ sont des meubles qui vont à l’encontre du concept de fonctionnalité et donnent une dimension poétique et surréaliste aux intérieurs. Parmi les plus célèbres dans cet ouvrage : Magritta, de Sebastian Matta, siège en forme de chapeau melon avec une pomme en hommage à Magritte ; Traccia, de Meret Oppenheim, guéridon avec un double piètement en pattes d’oiseau ; Les grands trans-Parents, de Man Ray, miroir poli et sérigraphié. Certains ‘Ultramobili’ sont encore produits de nos jours.

Summary:
Joanne Schwartz and Matt Beam have discovered numbers in many different forms all over the city. They are on houses and apartment buildings, on store windows and doors, on trucks and garbage bins, on sidewalks and parking spots. They are printed, spray-painted, molded in plastic, chiseled in stone, stamped on vinyl, even torched into metal. We see these numbers, often unconsciously, every day, but the wonderful photographs in this book prompt us to look at them more closely, becoming aware and alive to the art, serendipity and variety that surround us. This book is for anyone who enjoys engaging visually with the city.

Her spare, yet intricate, illustrations truly appear to take flight before our eyes and her wordless narrative nearly roars with sound as the conductor prompts the leaves to rustle, then whirl, then swirl to unexpected life with each turn of the page. It is a celebration of creativity, imagination, storytelling, and the renewing power of nature that will entrance readers of every age.

Paper is no longer the support for the text; it also communicates a message through the format, the colour, the cuts and their successions.

In 1949, Munari designed a series of “libri illeggibili” (illegible books), which abandon textual communication in favour of aesthetic function. Paper is no longer the support for the text; it also communicates a message through the format, the colour, the cuts and their successions. The elements that usually set up a book (like the colophon and the title-page) are omitted, and the reading plays like a melody, with different tones through the sequence of the pages.
