Giotto Stoppino is one of the central figures of Italian Neoliberty. He made his name at the 54th Triennale where he exhibited a series of innovative pieces made of curved plywood, a clear inspiration from the Scandinavian style that was very much in vogue in the 1950s. He began a fruitful collaboration with Vittorio Gregotti and Lodovico Meneghetti, with whom he also founded a studio based in Novara. From this collaboration came innovative furniture such as the light rush armchairs produced by Bonacina in 1961. The 1970s were the years in which Stoppino became famous for his metal objects such as the 537 lamp for Arteluce that was also displayed in the exhibition 'Italy: the New Domestic Landscape' at MoMA in 1972.
