After Moscow and Shanghai, the Salone del Mobile.Milano brand is touching down in the Usa with the talk “Italian Design Today”, which will see Michele De Lucchi, Francesca Lanzavecchia, Angela Missoni and Piero Lissoni discuss the new expressions of national design.
Is Italian design still in a position to dictate trends? What influence does Milan have on the international creative furnishing and interior architecture scene? What are the prospects for young designers in a world in which cultural cross-pollination has rendered national borders fluid? These are just some of the topics that will be discussed tomorrow, Wednesday 4th December, by Michele De Lucchi, Francesca Lanzavecchia, Angela Missoni and Piero Lissoni at the Wolfsonian-Fiu Museum in Miami, as part of the event “A Dreamscape of Italian Design“, organised in partnership with the Consulate General of Italy, the Italian Trade Agency Ice and the Salone del Mobile.Milano as part of Art Basel Miami. Following the success of the Master Classes held during the Salone del Mobile in Moscow and Shanghai (with over3,000 attendees), it’s now the turn of the United States, a country that has always kept a very close eye onthe evolutionof Italian design and the quality of Made in Italy furnishing. Terence Riley, former curator of Architecture and Design at MoMA in New York, will quiz the speakers on subjects that will also be relevant at the next Salone del Mobile.Milano, from 21st to 26th April 2020.
