Mattia Bonetti’s Surreal Objects of Desire

Share:

Starting his four-decade-long-career with fantastical collaborations with Elizabeth Garouste, Bonetti struck out on his own in 2002 and has continued to astonish art and design audiences with his eclectic, crossover works in museum and gallery exhibitions.
