Enzo Mari (April 27, 1932[1][2] – October 19, 2020) was an Italian modernist artist and furniture designer. He was inspired by the arts and crafts movement, and his political views as a communist. Mari was born in Novara, Italy.
In the 1970s, he founded the Nuova Tendenza art movement as a professor at Società Umanitaria, also in Milan. Also in that decade, he designed the Sof Sof chair[3] and the "Box" chair.[4]
Mari died on October 19, 2020 in Milan from COVID-19 at the age of 88.[5]
