Baracche. Appunti di prigionia 1944-1945

Product Information

Zu seinen unvergesslichsten Siegen zählen das Tirreno-Adriatico, Settimana Bergamasca and Trofeo Baracchi.

The Baracchi family, who restored the villa and now run the hotel, are also very active in the wine-making fields, producing some very fine creations from Sangiovese, Trebbiano, Syrah, Merlot and Cabernet Sauvignon. Originally an artist, Hannah Bigeleisen used theories of perception and repetition and an unusual approach to materials to shape her work. The glass forms are mounted to the wall using pieces of metal reinforcing bar (rebar), commonly used for building.Sein Name entspringt der Leidenschaft von Riccardo und Silvia Baracchi für die Falknerei. Noch heute wird die Beizjagd am Fuße der Hügel von Cortona praktiziert. These forms are then coated in fibreglass, powder, water-based resin and pigments to give it a new function. With a large, exposed bulb on top and smaller bulbs protruding from its sides, the end effect is intentionally comedic.

Dezeen Awards The name of the hotel comes from the passion that Riccardo and Silvia Baracchi's family has for falconry, an art which is still practised around the hills of Cortona. Each one is made from a gently bent tube of oxidised metal, with the final rainbow-like colour created by hand-heating, grinding and polishing each piece. Two opaque, white glass orbs fill each end of the tube, which sits on a small, round base.Inside the bubble is an LED bulb that grants the lamp its soft glow. The light is produced in a limited edition of eight. Among his most memorable victories were at Tirreno-Adriatico, Settimana Bergamasca, and Trofeo Baracchi. Small but surprisingly heavy, each of these lamps is cast from solid metal using a technique developed by Belgian designer Nicolas Erauw, which uses lost-wax casting and a dipping process that is similar to the technique used for making candles.
