At 81, the Italian designer and architect Gaetano Pesce is one of the world's greatest living innovators. Best known for his radical embrace of ordinary, unconventional materials of his time, he has constructed enormous pink buildings from foam, sofas that resemble jester hats, large-scale portraits from hand-poured resin and vases that bend and wobble. A pioneer in design, he's advocated for decades for the injection of human elements and error into mass produced design.This book is the first of its kind on Pesce, now in the twilight years of his career. It includes an interview with Pesce-come-essay by the critic Sophie Haigney, intimate portraits by Duane Michals, and four newly commissioned photographic series that take his work out into the world, allowing different image-makers to understand and connect with it for themselves.
