Filippo Cannata is an Italian lighting designer, born in Brescia in 1962.
After a long course of training at the major international institutions of lighting design and the most important lighting companies in the world, [1] [2] starting in the '80s, Cannata began to collaborate with artists and great masters of design and architecture as Dino Gavina, Cleto Munari, Alessandro Mendini, Mimmo Paladino, [3] and then Aldo Cibic, Matteo Thun, David Chipperfield, Buro Happold, [4] Atkins Architect, Stefano Boeri, Paolo Portoghesi, Mario Cucinella etc..
In 1992 he founded his first studio. In 2001, convinced that light is an important form of communication, it has transformed its name in Cannata & Partners Lighting Design Communication. This is a research laboratory that explores topics and content related to the light, its manifestations in nature, its history, its evolution through technology and design, to its use in professional and artistic contexts. More precisely, a workshop of ideas which aims to create a special language of emotions and experience through a light that has its roots in the area, the history and traditions of the culture of the Mediterranean.
He is a lecturer in the Specialization Course "Build - Building and Urban Innovative Lighting Design" in the University of Naples Federico II, holds seminars at various universities in Italy and abroad, and at master's degree in lighting design; participates in national and international competitions in architecture in collaboration with well-known studies and is a member of associations such as PLDA, [5] AIDI, IES, [6] CIBSE.

While a major figure in the world of architecture, he was, also and even more prominently, the leading sculptor of his age, credited with creating the Baroque style of sculpture.

In addition, he was a painter and a man of the theater: he wrote, directed and acted in plays, for which he designed stage sets and theatrical machinery. He produced designs as well for a wide variety of decorative art objects including lamps, tables, mirrors, and even coaches.

The Hunt of the Unicorn or the Unicorn Tapestries is one of the most famous and spectacular but enigmatic survivors of the late Middle Ages. This series of seven tapestries now in The Cloisters in New York was possibly made – or at least designed – in Paris at the turn of the sixteenth century. They are one of the canonical works of Late Middle Ages/Early Renaissance art and show a group of noblemen and hunters in pursuit of a unicorn through an idealised French landscape. The tapestries were woven in wool, metallic threads, and silk. The vibrant colours, still evident today, were produced from dye plants: weld (yellow), madder (red), and woad (blue).
