LOVE

As if shot directly from Cupid’s bow, the arrow that forms the structure of Love unites two red hearts and ends its trajectory at the base of the object. Gaetano Pesce, particularly willing to give emotional meanings to his creations, gives life to a particular narrative, at once tender and suggestive.

Gaetano Pesce's multifaceted and polyhedral personality motivates his fame as a designer, artist, and architect. Through his work, Pesce has profoundly impacted the landscape of contemporary design, navigating a diverse career that spans architecture, art, furniture design, and sculptural works. "My career is not monolithic, but fragmented," this is how Pesce defined his journey, which began in the late 1950s and continued until 2024. Far from being linear, his path has been marked by bold eclecticism, leading him to engage with various design disciplines while demonstrating a penchant for experimentation and playfulness. Pesce challenged both aesthetic and functional conventions, creating objects with the immediate power to become unforgettable.

Since the early 1960s, Pesce has played a pivotal role within the radical design movement, characterised by an iconoclastic vision, aimed at breaking with the conventions of positivist modernism and exploring new creative possibilities. Through relentless innovation, artistic exploration and profoundly radical intellectual dynamism, Pesce emerged as a beacon of change, reshaping the landscape of contemporary design.
