Columbia GSAPP MArch student Luiza Furia speaks with Gaetano Pesce, artist and multidisciplinary creator, in advance of his lecture at the school on October 15, 2018. Renowned for his use of color, innovative materials, and social-political commentary, Pesce is a pioneer of 20th-century design whose aesthetic influence is evident in today’s industrial design.
“I tell my students, you have to express yourself, to say what you think personally. Your architecture has to be the language of yourself… Design is a very complex new language, and if you use it in the right way, it becomes an art – like architecture, by the way.” – Gaetano Pesce
