BRUNO MUNARI: THE CHILD WITHIN @ CIMA
The Center for Italian Modern Art (CIMA) will present Bruno Munari: The Child Within.
The show will focus on Munari’s children’s books and will demonstrate how his publications expressed his wide-ranging ideas about the possibilities art offered to communicate visually. These books bring together Bruno Munari’s ideas regarding art, design, and pedagogy in an accessible form. It was Munari’s goal to develop a purely visual language that fostered new modes of communication, often without needing words. Munari’s show at CIMA will also feature artist books from other cultures, including Russian revolutionary children’s books that played a role in Munari’s own formation and approach to the genre. Furthermore, the presentation will include artworks and design objects by Munari that share themes — as well as visual and formal connections — with his children’s books.

NIDORAMO
Nidoramo wooden games tell the story of the "once upon a time" challenge of the game to persist in the current era, in which everything has the flavor of technology, the digital virtuality.
Their wooden games have a different flavor, of times and places "of the past". Concrete, gentle shapes and eco-sustainable materials that combine to develop sociability and imagination, inspired in part by Montessori pedagogy and the Waldorf school.
Look at thi magic that comes to life in a small laboratory where Francesco and Anna live and work.
