XS is an exhibition presenting a selection of Poltronova’s iconic designs — like Passiflora by Superstudio, 1967 — alongside something unexpected.
🌼 The Passiflora lighting fixture comes from a painted cardboard prototype made for the exhibition “Superarchitettura” [December 1966], a manifesto of Radical Design.
🌼 The cardboard was replaced with a light–permeable material, transforming Passiflora into a truncated luminous column: a column whose deformed profile wavers between natural and artificial, in a game of allusions and ambiguities, corresponding to the statement of intent of Superstudio, summed up in the text “Invention Design and Evasion Design”.

Sanremo is composed of a slender metal trunk topped by “foliage” like that of a stylized palm tree, formed by lanceolate transparent or fluorescent green methacrylate leaves that radiate light.
The prototype of the Sanremo floor lamp was an engagement present from Dario Bartolini to Lucia Morozzi, given to her in the villa in Roccamare designed by Ernesto Nathan Rogers.
The prototype also called for a sound similar to the song of a cricket, eliminated in the production version.
Floor lamp with indirect light Sanremo is a floor lamp more than two meters high with a phytomorphic shape. A square base supports a long stem made with a lacquered steel tube onto which a luminous crown composed of 12 perspex leaves is grafted in the green or transparent versions.
«Many people couldn’t grasp what we were up to. In reality many of our objects were created for reasons other than that of architecture: an engagement party, a wedding. Any opportunity was good enough to materialise our vision of the world».
[Lucia Bartolini, 2007]
— Available in: transparent / fluorescent green
