Casamatta
Museum | Lonate Ceppino | Lombardia | Italy
The "Casamatta" Museum in Lonate Ceppino, Lombardy, Italy, is dedicated to the Chilean artist Roberto Sebastián Matta. Matta, born in 1911, is known for his surrealist works and his versatile creativity. In 2012, an exhibition titled "Casamatta" was presented at the Triennale Design Museum in Milan, reconstructing the interior design of Matta's house. This exhibition showcased the complexity and genius of Matta's works, including furniture and decorative objects that were harmoniously combined with his paintings.
The "Casamatta" exhibition allowed visitors to experience the close connection between Matta's painting and his understanding of design. The exhibited pieces, including wooden benches, resin chairs, and terracotta vases, reflected his ability to combine different materials and create unique artworks. This exhibition helped deepen the understanding of Matta's influence on the art and design world, making his versatile creativity accessible to a wider audience.
