Lot 140
The pair of bedside tables presented here are part of the furnishings of the apartment for Eng. Horatii in Milan that
Zavanella designed and built between 1936 and 1938. For the interiors, the Mantuan architect collaborated with his artist friend Lucio Fontana who created the "Sitting Miss" located between the kitchen and the living room. Here Zavanella "mixes, in the same environment, accents of technological and thread-like minimalism with the plasticism of Fontana's statuary, thus ideally combining two extremes: an abstract linearism and the informal of the Italo-Argentine artist.
