Consolle Ballerina

Today these objects represent the starting point for a project that sets out to connect design and artistic handicrafts. A process that Ugo La Pietra started during the early 1980s, developing it through tens of exhibitions and conceiving it with such magazines as Area, Abitare con Arte, Artigianato tra arte e design. These pieces can be seen as the ‘manifesto’ of a movement related to Neo-Eclecticism which was defined as ‘Classic-Contemporary’ at the first convention of the event ‘Abitare il Tempo’, which had been set up in Verona.
