The artwork depicted is the “Cubo Ashtray design” created by Bruno Munari in 1957. This piece is a part of the Concretism art movement and falls under the genre of design and utensils.
In the artwork, two cube-shaped objects are presented, one smaller than the other. Both objects are sleek, with a modern and minimalistic aesthetic. The smaller cube has an inward-sloping top designed to hold and perhaps extinguish cigarette ash, embodying both functional and artistic qualities. The clean lines and geometric shapes reflect the principles of Concretism, focusing on clarity, structure, and materiality. The color palette is monochromatic, further emphasizing the pure form and function of the design.
