MARI - Enzo MariMARI - Enzo Mari
Enzo Mari was born in Novara in 1932 and studied at the Academy of Fine Arts in Milan. While still training in the 1950s, as an artist he held one-man and group shows at the leading galleries and modern art museums. In 1963 he acted as coordinator for Italy's Nuova Tendenza group and in 1965 he organised its exhibition at the Zagreb Biennial. He also took part in the Venice Biennale and the Milan Triennale on several occasions. Parallel to this activity, he started working as a designer. Initially, he designed on his own, but later he collaborated with numerous manufacturers in the fields of graphic design, product design and exhibition installations. One of the traits of Mari's work, internationally renowned as some of the best Italian design, is the unending quest for, and experimentation with, new product forms and meanings. Sometimes he even moved consciously outside the mainstream of traditional industrial design. In 1971 he participated critically in the MoMA show: 'Italy: The New Domestic Landscape'. His singular role in Italian design is also revealed by the many publications devoted to his work, including two monographs Funzione della ricerca estetica and Enzo Mari Designer. Moreover, he has played a part in major institutions, such as the Industrial Design Association (he was its president from 1976 to 1979). He has been awarded significant prizes, such as the Compasso d'Oro (1967 and 1979); also, his work has been acquired by several modern art museums (Galleria Nazionale d'Arte Moderna, Rome; Moderna Museet, Stockholm; Stedelijk Museum, Amsterdam; Musée du Louvre, Paris; Kunstmuseum, Düsseldorf).

Enzo Mari has worked with numerous Italian manufacturers, amongst the most famous of which are Alessi, Artemide, Danese, Zanotta and Robots. His'Tonietta' chair (for Zanotta in 1981), won the Compasso d'Oro in 1987.

MARISCAL - Javier MariscalMARISCAL - Javier Mariscal
Javier Mariscal has played a crucial role in the rapid emergence of the modern design activity that engulfed Barcelona in the early 1980's. He was born in Valencia in 1950, but went to Barcelona to study at the Elisava School of Graphics, from which he graduated in 1971. His early furniture designs were exhibited in a shop in Barcelona and seen by Ettore Sottsass who promptly invited Mariscal to design some pieces for Memphis - it was this work that brought Mariscal widespread public attention - his modernist style reflects influences of Miro and Gaudi using bold, expressive colours and cartoon like forms. He has since produced work for Moroso and Alessi.
