Mattia Bonetti at Cardi Black Box. Until July 31st, Cardi Black Box gallery presents an exceptional exhibition project: a show entirely dedicated to design, born from the growing contamination between contemporary art and other creative disciplines. The international project stages, for the first time in Italy, a solo show of the Swiss artist-designer Mattia Bonetti; a selection of works, which are all limited editions realized exclusively for Cardi Black Box. Mattia Bonetti is a versatile figure, a creative artist who demonstrates in his works a great draughtmanship in drawing and a remarkable skill in the passage from the model to its three-dimensional realization.
