Cleto Munari’s eyewear collection premiered at Mondelliani shop

On 21 September at Mondelliani in Via dei Prefetti 11 in Rome, the international preview presentation of Cleto Munari’s eyewear collection took place at the presence of the artist. Passionate about eyewear, design accessories and art since 1961, the ‘Mondelliani’ have distinguished themselves over the years for their scrupulous and futuristic research work by travelling around the world to find the most extraordinary models, becoming a point of reference for innovative and unconventional designs.In his 50 years of artistic production, Cleto Munari once again chooses to express his creativity in a different sphere, creating a collection of signature objects poised between art and design. Concave and convex, empty and full. Each shape is a stratification of Cleto Munari’s artistic and intellectual experiences. The collection consists of 13 models. Colour is an indispensable part of the compositional game: it cleverly reveals the playful aspect of the collection. “Colour is much more than a ‘verb’ for me: it is essence like form,” Cleto Munari declares.

The departure is from a hot Milan, to throw in Valle d’Aosta Valley to discover the wines of this area. This is the press day organized by Zedcomm for a group of Milanese journalists to reach on of the historic companies in the Aosta Valley: Grosjean Vins. Wine producers in the Aosta Valley since 1600, the Grosjean family has been able to perfectly combine history, tradition, inventiveness and innovation, in the vineyard and in the cellar. However, it is the “human factor”, represented by the deep bond that each of its members has for their work and their land, that has made it one of the vigneron families that have made Aosta Valley enology important. This bond renewed today by the third generation of the “modern era”, with the management of the Grosjean Vins cellar passed to the young Hervé, Didier, Simon and Marco.
