ink on paper
cm 27,8 x 21,6

Idealized diagram of the Futurist Pavilion designed by Prampolini for the Valentino Park Exhibition in Turin in 1928, created in collaboration with Fillia and Pino Curtone and with the neo-futurist architects of Turin, the pavilion represents an original embodiment of neo-futurist architecture, characterized by its gaudy polychromy, in the volumetric contrasts, in the eye-catching self-advertising writing.
