Autoprogettazione revisited celebrates the influence of renowned italian designer Enzo mari’s 1970s project for self-made furniture. Free on request, it contained a set of in- structions for 19 pieces of furniture in the form of cutting plans and axonometric drawings. A personal manifesto, mari’s text laid out the issue he saw as central to industrial production – the quality-quantity ratio, quality being defined as when the shape of a product does not ‘seem’ but simply ‘is’. For mari, this statement was not a paradox. in a text accompanying the instructions, he wrote that ‘anyone, apart from factories and traders, can use the designs to make them by themselves’, and asked that photographs of the resulting piec- es be sent to his studio – a process that Autoprogettazione revisited aims to con- tinue 35 years after the project’s inception. 

Jon Rubin's current "art project" is a viable business as well.
