A cura di Mauro Frigerio, Michele Marelli, Aurelio Porro, Alfio Terraneo. Edizioni Charturium, Cantù, 2024

The book adds new insights, be they a drawing or an unpublished photo, a sketch or a note, on the complexity of Angelo Mangiarotti's work. Plus, the attention to the "backstage", or what comes before the famous design objects impeccably immortalized on the pages of books and magazines: not only prototypes or variants of a project, but also unlikely photo sets in the open countryside, children playing with "machines" that clash, in their modernity, with the simplicity of their clothes and frugal lunches in almost improvised dinettes. And in the background, the professional esteem and friendship with his craftsman from Cantù.
