This “functional work of art” represents in an exemplary way the concept of Ultramobile, operation conceived by Dino Gavina in 1971 with the aim of adapting in a surprising way the surrealist object to daily use. Sacco Alato was born in foundry while making Margarita, casting a bag of concrete and splitting it in two. Lacking any other props, the big road rocks provided the feet for this seat/sculpture.
Almost 50 years after the first prototypes and the very few works produced by Simon International, the re-edition of Sacco Alato in a brand new aluminium version has been possible thanks to Alisée Matta.
Limited edition of 25 pieces, with engraved identification number and artist’s signature. Each piece is accompanied by a Certificate of Authenticity.
