ORNAGHI & PRESTINARI and RELATED APPLICATIONS for MAGAZZINO ITALIAN ART — Located in Cold Spring, New York, Magazzino is an extensive private collection of arte povera and other post-war and contemporary Italian art. Occasionally, the collectors present shows in other locations, such as this intimate exhibition of the artist duo Ornaghi & Prestinari. Here, their unlikely re-creations of domestic objects fit so well into the townhouse-like setting of New York University’s Casa Italiana, they occasionally blur into the existing decor. The catalog plays with this notion of domesticity, employing the familiar visual language of furniture and design catalogs, albeit in a more abstracted manner.
