About the Item

New Year’s greeting ushering in the year 1967 mailed out by renowned Italian artist and educator Eugenio Carmi (1920-2016). Folds out to a serigraph measuring 39.25” x 26.75”. This example sent to the Philadelphia-based educator and graphic designer Paul Schaub. The red and green color scheme adds a Christmas seasons greetings element. Carmi was a leading exponent of abstract art in Italy and a close friend of Umberto Eco, with whom he collaborated on several projects. Signed by Carmi and dated “66” (when it was executed). Addressed to Schaub at Moore College in Philadelphia; sent in February 1967. A fragile and likely highly scarce item. Unframed. Will ship folded.

By Guido Gambone
Located in New York, NY
Well-edited and lavishly illustrated survey of mid-century Italian ceramics, written by Hugo Blattler and published in Rome in 1958 by Aristide Palombi as part of the Arti Pratiche series, intended to contribute to an examination in depth of the material, as well as to the documentation and to the spreading of knowledge of each separate subject. Features vessels, lighting, fireplaces, and artworks by renowned artists such as Lucio Fontana, Salvatore Meli, Fauson Melotti, Gio Ponti, Antonia Campi, Marcello Fantoni, Franco Meneguzzo, Pietro Melandri, and Guido Gambone, along with a host of lesser-known figures. Stellar abstract designs throughout. Square 8vo (8.5” x 9”), 206 pages, hardcover, illustrated throughout in b/w. Slight lean to spine. Mild soiling to extremities, with chipping to corners. Professional repair to front hinge, as well as between pp. 194-5 and 204-5. Light chipping to first two leaves. The complete front cover remains of the dust jacket, which is still crisp and vibrant, with only minor chipping to top edge. Missing spine and back of dust jacket. A must-have for collectors and connoisseurs of Italian design and mid century ceramics.
