Alessi: storia e futuro di una Fabbrica del Design Italiano
22.05.2010 – September 2010
One of the really great figures of design – Alessandro Mendini – is
curating and designing a retrospective of the last 30 years of Italian
design specially for Die Neue Sammlung. Mendini focuses his exhibition
on a key player in the design world: the Alessi company, which has very
successfully morphed from a small metal-working firm into a creative
factory in the field of design with global operations. Not only with
its products but above all through its influential ideas, actions and
meta projects Alessi wrote European design history and provided inspiration
for reflections on the future of design.
