A seminal figure in 20th-century design, the Italian architect and designer Ettore Sottsass (1917-2007) created a vast body of work, the result of an exceptionally productive career that spanned more than six decades. This exhibition reevaluates Sottsass's career in a presentation of key works in a range of media-including architectural drawings, interiors, furniture., machines, ceramics, glass, textiles and pattern, painting and photography. His new insights on design influence many today.
