Arnaldo Pomodoro
Tecno medal, 1979
6.5 x 5.5 x 0.5 cmbronzeThis bronze relief was designed by Arnaldo Pomodoro in 1979 to commemorate the 25th anniversary of Tecno, the legendary Italian design manufacturer. Cast in solid bronze with a dark patina, the piece features Pomodoro’s signature visual language: a precise interplay of geometric abstraction, linear incisions, and fractured surfaces that suggest tension, motion, and an architectural depth.
Conceived as a commemorative edition, this piece is not merely a corporate memento but a sculptural artwork in miniature — a fully realized expression of Pomodoro’s Brutalist-Constructivist idiom, condensed into a hand-sized object. It encapsulates the fusion of Italian avant-garde art and industrial design that defined the postwar design movement.

A rare and collectible object by one of Italy’s most important postwar sculptors — especially significant for collectors of Italian design history or Pomodoro's work in multiples and editions.
