About the Item

Library designed by Anacleto Spazzapan Materials: Hand-welded iron rods Dimensions: 150 x 45 x h 200 cm The library is made entirely by hand with a metal rod. Suitable for all types of environments thanks to the use of an epoxy powder coating that protects the iron by not causing it to rust while the preparation base is built from black zinc paint. Anacleto Spazzapan - Born in Luino (VA) in 1943, he now lives in Stezzano (Bergamo). Having graduated as a surveyor, in his life he has tried his hand at various jobs: designer, production assistant, renovations and trade. With a friend he started importing marble sanitaryware from Indonesia. After joining the artisans, he opened a glass factory specializing in the production of aquariums and small glass furniture. He has stayed in touch with Indonesia where he is involved in the production of wooden furniture and trade in ethnographic objects. On the island of Java, he discovered a 3,000-year-old civilization; he reported its existence to the Indonesian government and, with the economic and political support of an Italian entrepreneur, he conducted several excavation campaigns with important findings, allowing two unemployed welders in the area to get a job. In 2011, the designer and artist began to design and produce furnishing elements with an original technique that uses only very small iron rods, ranging from 3.5 to 8 millimeters. He collaborates with big names such as Cleto Munari and Sandro Chia. His works have often been published on Vouge and Elle Decor and on many sites dedicated to art and design.
