As you may well guess, not everyone may have access to the group. Welcome to new members :-) We take the name from www.nPMagazine.it since its creator, Dr Alessandro Narciso is our moderator.

But thanks to a renovation by French architect Jean Michel Wilmotte and the arrival of dynamic young curator Tristan Hoare, ...

His 500-strong output of electronic designs for Braun, between 1955 and 1995 changed the language of appliance design as we know it today and his ‘Ten Principles’ of good design have become a mantra – a checklist and a rule book – for industrial designers the world over. With the same reductive efficiency he applied to his own designs, in ten simple commandments, Rams ...

He looks like a well-combed cross between Grizzly Adams and Karl Marx and has an aura of a man who has found his place in the fabric of things. He is in the German town of Wolfsburg (home to the Volkswagen car and an hour’s train ride from Berlin) for the opening of a new exhibition of his work. Born in Los Angeles in 1943, Turrell studied mathematics, psychology and sensory synesthesia as well as art at ...

Christie’s went first, selling 39 of 46 lots for a total of $74.1m on November 10th. It was less than a quarter of their $325m total exactly two years ago, but still a respectable outcome given the difficulty of obtaining consignments. No one wants to sell their art during a recession unless they have to. Remarkably, few collectors seem to be in that position and, if they are, they feel safer off-loading ...
