Table clock produced in the early 1980s, postmodern, made of lacquered metal, with a gray circular dial on a black circular background.
It is part of a stock of watches that came from a store closed decades ago and miraculously returned to light.
The various levels of overlapping of the background emphasize the shapes, giving movement and particular geometry to the object, thus becoming not a simple watch but a particular collector's and design object.
NEW YORK written on the dial.
Measures 17cm. tall and 18 cm. in width.
Very good condition, may have some signs of age.
The actual collective was born from an informal meeting organized by Sottsass in his Milanese home on 11 December 1980, to generally discuss new expressive forms linked to design; together with De Lucchi, colleagues Aldo Cibic, Matteo Thun, Marco Zanini and Martine Bedin participated in the invitation. Together, they decided to create a working group as a reaction to the style that had characterized the design of the 70s, very minimalist, considered without personality and characterized by a glossy appearance as well as lackluster colours, primarily black.
