When he was just twenty, he joined the second-generation Milanese Futurist Movement and began his eclectic activities in the fields of painting, design, educational and kinetic experimentation, graphic design, advertising and photography. In 1948 he founded the MAC (Concrete Art Movement) together with Monnet, Dorfles and Soldati. In April '54 Munari worked together with Dorfles on the exhibition Colore per le carrozzerie di auto, held at the Salone dell'Automobile in Turin. The same year, he was one of the members of the Italian Groupe ESPACE. He won international acclaim for his work in the field of design and his studies of art, play and creative learning that aimed to respect the intelligence of children. He died in Milan on 30 September 1998.
