Gaetano PESCE is a furniture artist who is found somewhere beyond modernism. Pesce’s trademark is as a Trickster – with a smirk about to burst. In the 1970s, when the world was all matte black and chrome, as standardised as Le Corbusier and his ilk wished it, Italian-born Pesce began making furniture and objects of a delirious gloopiness – all polychromatic ooze and inherently inimitable. His practise has been global, his innovations consistently ground breaking. Boundaries between art, design and industry are irrelevant to him, as- art is most certainly not something created and put on a pedestal. http://www.gaetanopesce.com/
There is a need in my
school’s Learning Enrichment Centre for more space and better facilities. I wish to propose a model of a redesigned Learning Enrichment Centre,
where students will flourish in their learning and be provided with the resources for various subjects, including life skills units.
This would hopefully encourage the school to upgrade the conditions of the
Learning Enrichment Centre. My model will be made using foam boards and laser
cut pieces for the interior furniture. I am looking for
suggestions on possible themes, and safety regulations to incorporate
into my design to assist with development. Thanks!
