Not simply a book. Not just one of many catalogues. Instead, a work in itself. In which the artist wanted to make his mark in the form of a self-portrait that is not only figurative but also conceptual. These pages on Gaetano Pesce - architect, artist, designer, planner - have the profile of Pesce's very own face. They resemble him. They are in harmony with him. They reflect his passion for experimenting with new forms (each page is different and unique) and new materials (the cover is made with pig bristle, coconut fiber and silicone), as well as his conviction for freeing objects - including books - from the slavery that condemns them to sameness. A collector's piece. Different from all other books, though always, and freely, a book.
