Ico Parisi (Palermo 1916 - Como 1996) was one of the leading figures in the culture of Como's 900; in 1951 he began friendships and collaborations with artists, designers, and architects such as Lucio Fontana, Bruno Munari, Mario Radice, and Gio Ponti. These relationships profoundly influenced his approach to architecture and furniture design and exemplify Ico Parisi's desire to integrate a synthesis of the arts into his work. By the mid-1950s, Parisi had become one of Italy's most influential furniture designers, with a unique modern aesthetic that uses softwoods often shaped into sweeping undulating curves or simple, essential forms. Ico Parisi is a "humanistic" figure of artist-artist difficult to place, he was an architect and designer but also a photographer, film director, and painter, in short, an artist at 360 degrees, he died in Como on December 19, 1996. The chairs are in excellent original condition. Measures width cm.42, depth cm.44, height cm.91, seat cm.46.
