through a selection of six scenes: "The Rabbit Hole", "Down the Hole", "In the Hall", "With the
Dodo and Friends", "The Mashroom", and "The Trial". Also included is a set of reusable stickers

Bruno Munari - Art Theorems

Corraini Editore 2017 ISBN 9788887942347 Acqn 28094
Pb 12x16cm 30pp 10ills £19.75

First published by Scheiwiller in 1961 the Milanese master's historic 'Theorems on art' is added to
the Block notes series (punched silver cover), conceived and directed by Bruno Munari. The book
includes a sharp and amusing collection of brief considerations about art which still make us
smile and reflect today. 'Theorems on art' has a new cover and it plays with Munari's schemes. It
still has the holes but the silver cover has been replaced by pure white and next to the name of
the series /03 is added, to indicate the year Corraini decided to start playing again with these
books that, through the idea of the hole, embody the power of curiosity and stimulus for creativity.

Noemi Vola - Bear With Me

Corraini Editore 2017 ISBN 9788875706906 Acqn 28169
Pb 15x21cm 48pp 48col ills £19.50

This book created by illustrator Noemi Vola tells us that sometimes it is possible to live with those
who are heavy, uncouth, hairy, and cumbersome; we just need to find the right balance. Filled
with amusing drawings of one woman's trials and tribulations after a bear moves into her house,
the story teaches us how eventually everyone has some kind of bear in life which must be
acknowledged and dealt with every day. Noemi Vola graduated in 2016 in Comics and Illustration
at the Academy of Fine Arts in Bologna, having already founded 'Bianca' in 2014, a self-produced
magazine for children that collects comics and illustrated stories.

Silla Mexicana
Arquine 2018 ISBN 9786079489250 Acqn 28322
Pb 18x24cm 264pp 194col ills £32

The chair has always been more than a utilitarian item in Mexican culture. The chair's utility, its
fundamental importance in everyday life, has made it a productive site for experimentation,
producing some of the most iconic examples of Mexican design. In this volume, design curator
Anna Elena Mallet explores the chair in Mexican cultural and design history. Organized
chronologically as an illustrated timeline, Silla Mexicana presents a lively history of the chair from
folk art to colonial-period manufacturing, culminating in the creations of contemporary architects
and designers-the chair as a collectors' item as well as a functional object.

Designers surveyed in this volume include Gaston Chaussat, William Spratling, Michael van
Beuren, Eleuterio Cortes and Luis Barragan, Ezekiel Farca, Jorge Moreno, Bernardo Gomez-
Pimienta, Anne Monique Renee Midy, Victor Klassen, Lucio Muniain and Carlos Mapelli,
Alejandra and Cecelia Prieto, Louis Poire and many more.
