Ettore Sottsass was born in Innsbruck in 1907 to an architect and an Austrian mother. After graduating from the Galileo Ferraris high school, he enrolled in the faculty of architecture at the Politecnico di Torino (Italy) where he graduated in 1939. When either war and imprisonment ended, he went back to Italy in 1947 and worked in Milan with Giuseppe Pagano. Much loved abroad, he was selected by Emilio Ambasz to represent the new Italian design at the epochal MoMA exhibition entitled "Italy. The new domestic landscape ”(1972). Several solo exhibitions, including those at Cooper Hewitt in New York and at the International Design Zentrum in Berlin (both held in 1976) were set up.
