About the Exhibition

Bruno Munari (1907–1998) is an Italian artist, designer, writer, and educator. Having started out as a member of the Second Futurist group, after World War II, continuing in search of a new state of art, he was active in design, picture books, educational toys, and writing, too.

There will be chances for you to touch a variety books and educational toys and to experience workshops devised by Munari himself, providing a full view of this peerless man of expression full of humor.
