Gaetano Pesce

<p>A major figure in the history of design, Gaetano Pesce drew inspiration from a lamp he designed in 1969 to create this monumental sculpture in 2022. The motif of the pierced double heart has featured throughout his drawing practice. The piece embodies one of the key principles of Pesce’s artistic philosophy: the idea that the contemporary age should engage with the exuberant joy and romanticism inherent in so many objects and humans alike. Placed at the entrance to the garden – a place to stroll and to love – the image of pierced hearts, deeply poetic in its symbolism, also contains a form of uncertainty and the possible tragedy of destiny. </p><p>Gaetano Pesce studied architecture at the IUAV in Venice and attended the Venice Institute of Industrial Design. There, he met Milena Vettore with whom he opened a studio in Padua, founding in 1959 the “N” Group. Since 1962, Pesce has worked in design, experimenting with new materials and unusual shapes. He has taught at the Institut d’Architecture et d’Etudes Urbaines in Strasbourg and the Cooper Union in New York City, where he has lived and worked since 1980. Pesce’s work can be found in the permanent collections of over 30 national and international museums, including the Museum of Modern Art, New York City; San Francisco Museum of Modern Art; Metropolitan Museum of Art, New York City; Vitra Design Museum, Weil am Rhein; Centre Pompidou, Paris; Musée des Arts Décoratifs, Paris; and the Victoria and Albert Museum, London.</p>
