By turns architect, furniture designer, glassmaker and jewellery designer, Gaetano Pesce (1939-) belongs in a class of his own. Today, the Ligurian artist is widely regarded as one of the most important and elusive creative figures of the last half-century. A bridge-builder between many art and design movements, without ever belonging to any one of them, Pesce's singular practice has remained resolutely provocative, challenging convention, utility and good taste.
In this monograph, Pesce looks back on his incomparable and wildly inventive career, recounting his life and practice to renowned curator and design critic Glenn Adamson.
