“Fortuny” funkcionira kao rotirajuća podna lampa s mehanizmom za prilagođavanje visine / “Fortuny” functions as a rotating floor lamp with a mechanism that adjusts the height Rođendanski model lampe “Century” / “Birthday” model of the lamp named “Century” has affected many contemporary designers, such as the Japanese creator Issey Miyake. Experimenting with Light At the turn of the century, besides painting and working with textile, Fortuny experimented by using the then-invented electric light in scene design. During that same year of 1907, the “Fortuny” lamp was designed after a stage light in the theatre that enabled the lighting on the stage to be changed effortlessly, ranging from the daylight of the clear sky to eclipse and dusk. Lamp “Fortuny” functions on a similar principle and clearly demonstrates the designer’s philosophy that “objects do not become visible due to the amount of light, but rather due to its quality”. This elegant lamp subtly defuses the light that overflows like an opal through silken curtains that are spread over its gentle construction. The silk was manually coloured on the original lamp, and it contained golden motifs inspired by Oriental art, while glass beads and silken leashes were added at the end. Floor lamp “Fortuny” is again being manufactured since 1985, and it is produced by Italian company “Pallucco”. Due to the 100th anniversary of this exceptional designer piece, the lamp was modified in order to put extra-emphasis on its pure and simple lines. The white colour, which discretely points out its elegant construction, and silver rays in a futuristic rhythmical sequence make it fresh and extremely attractive, adjusting it to the dynamic present period. “Fortuny” functions as a rotating floor lamp with a mechanism that adjusts the height, and it’s available in white, beige or black, as well as in an ornamental version of the background, featuring a white print on a beige or black surface. The newest “birthday” model of this lamp named “Century” also has silver prints on the background’s inside. The “Fortuny” lamp is an example of early modernist preoccupation with industrial materials, functionalism and position of the object in a room. Distinct like a modernist sculpture, the lamp dominates the room in a certain way, but in no moment does the decorative side dominate the functional side. However, if you put the “Fortuny” lamp in a spacious interior, it will hardly stay unnoticed. Mariano Fortuny Y Madrazo has spent most of his creative and overall life in Venice. That’s where he bought the impressive palace Pesaro Orfei, which he turned into a huge atelier/laboratory named Palazzo Fortuny, and today that is the home of museum “Fortuny”, where you can find numerous products of his work. Celebrated as the “Venetian Magician” in his time by his contemporaries, Mariano Fortuny will remain remembered in the history of art and design as one of the last “renaissance people” in the true sense of that term. Constant curiosity pushed him into brand new quests, whether it meant travelling the broad European or Oriental spaces, or reaching down deep into the history of ancient Greece and Egypt. Inspired by the work and figure of German compositor, but also philosopher, Richard Wagner, Fortuny defined his own aesthetical ideals. He claimed that an artist should control every stage of his artistic process, down to the slightest of details, and that no artistic discipline outweighs the other one because they are all just as important. An artist who invented the boat propeller, inventor who designed Isadora Duncan’s most beautiful dresses, an aesthete who made his own furniture and painting equipment, set pages on his own books, and also a theoretician of light who implemented his own theories in practice while achieving amazing results, Mariano Fortuny has left an undeniable influence on modern life. Fortuny’s fabrics are still manufactured, and they have just as much quality, are incredibly durable and covered in a dose of mystique because Fortuny’s methods were never completely revealed to the public, according to the legend. Still, some of his designer pieces, such as the “Fortuny” lamp, are still manufactured and further perfected, and are available to buyers of refined taste and a deeper pocket. Pallucco’s “Fortuny” lamp is also available in our area and can be purchased through the “Lumenart” company from Pula, which deals with designing architectural lighting. 103
