Presentation of the reprint of Bruno Munari’s Codice Ovvio (Obvious Code), 1971, republished by Corraini, Mantua at Artissima, Meeting Point, Torino with Gianpiero Cavaglià, Marzia Corraini, Filippo Fossati, et alt. Published for the first time by Einaudi in 1971 with a preface by Paolo Fossati, Codice ovvio (Obvious code) is the volume through which Bruno Munari put together the various pieces of his multifaceted production as an artist, graphic designer, writer and designer. The critical text written by Paolo Fossati – scholar and art critic, teacher and one of Einaudi’s leader – is the fundamental text that provides the reader with the essential gateway, and that brings us closer to the obvious code. This is a book that, as Fossati points out, is not a catalog of what the artist had created, but rather a strong poetic statement of it, a trace of what he had been done so far, a note that could tell without explaining what it was art for him, and his way of experiencing it.
