Jean Prouve Libri
Jean Prouvé è stato un metalmeccanico, architetto autodidatta e designer francese, noto per aver trasferito la tecnologia di produzione industriale all'architettura senza comprometterne le qualità estetiche. La sua abilità progettuale si estendeva a molteplici discipline, comprendendo il design architettonico, industriale, strutturale e d'arredo. Prouvé è celebrato come un "costruttore" che fuse magistralmente arte e ingegneria.
In the fields of design, architecture, and engineering, Jean Prouvé (1901–1984) is widely considered one of the most versatile and innovative designers of the 20th century. Yet surprisingly, only a relatively small number of collectors and cognoscente outside France are familiar with his work. Alongside Charles and Ray Eames, to whose oeuvre Vitra has dedicated itself since 1957, Jean Prouvé can truly be considered the second major "constructor" in 20th century design. The small book delves into the manifest differences between the Eames' work and Prouvé's designs – differences that are quite evidently the product of the respective technological climate in which these marvelous designers were active. For many years now, the Vitra Design Museum collection has focused on Jean Prouvé as well as Charles and Ray Eames.
