11 years after the death of Angelo Mangiarotti, ALPI celebrate the legacy of the Italian architect, designer and urban planner in a retrospective at the Milan Triennale. When Structures Take Shape includes 2 large monolithic totems made from parallelepipeds of variously coloured solid ALPI wood. Built in the mid-80s to a design by Maestro Mangiarotti, the forms and concavities evoke a relationship between the planes and surfaces and reveal the infinite variety of patterns and designs that can be achieved from this material. ‘Nothing like this had been done until then.’
