PATTENA. GIANNI PETTENA

Gianni Pettena was a founding member of the radical Florentine architecture movement in the 1960s and 1970s, together with Archizoom, Remo Buti, 9999, Superstudio, UFO and Zziggurat, albeit always maintaining an independent position. As well as critiquing modernist functionalism, he frequented galleries, artists, and critics of the day, and became noted for his purposeful reluctance to actually design.
