Gaetano Pesce was one of the leaders of the ‘Italian’ radical group of the 1960’s. Since 1962 he has worked in design, experimenting with new materials and unusual shapes. He is renowned for mixing art to the design of interiors, products and architecture. In 1971 he collaborated with Alessandro Mendini in BracciodiFerro (the Cassina group) for the production of experimental objects. He also taught architecture in numerous institutions, including the Institut d’Architecture et d’Etudes Urbaines in Strasbourg, France, for 28 years, the Carnegie Mellon in Pittsburgh, the Domus Academy in Milan, the Polytechnic of Hong Kong and the Cooper Union in New York City, where he lives since 1980, after living in Venice, London, Helsinki and Paris.
Gaetano Pesce has designed iconic pieces for brands such as B&B Italia and Cassina and has won several awards including the Chrysler Design Award (1993) and the Design Excellence Award from the Philadelphia Museum of Art (2005).
