Best of “Fuorisalone Milano” in 1-3 days

Between April 14 and 21, 2024

  • The inaugural Salone del Mobile Italiano was orchestrated in 1961 by the Committee for the Organisation of the Salone del Mobile Italiano (Cosmit).

    By the 1970s, Milanese galleries and designers began leveraging their showrooms in the city as an extension of their commercial presence at the trade fair.

    In the ensuing decade, the ‘Salone-fuori-dal-Salone’ gained significant traction, becoming a thriving phenomenon. Abitare, the prominent design magazine, even dedicated a section to this novel development, colloquially known among insiders as ‘Fuorisalone,’ underscoring its growing importance in the design landscape.

    Themed “MATERIA NATURA”, the Fuorisalone 2024 is an opportunity to explore the dimensions in which nature can manifest itself as inspiration and design material.

    Thus, it highlights sustainability as a fundamental virtue, just like in the previous three editions of the Fuorisalone.

    In 2024, sustainability will be seen and appreciated through lens of the creative process.

Best of the “Venice Biennale” in 1-3 days

Between April 20 and November 24, 2024

  • Curated by Adriano Pedrosa, artistic director of the Museu de Arte de São Paulo Assis Chateaubriand, the 60th Venice Biennale will take place from 20 April to 24 November, 2024.

    The 2024 edition of the Venice Biennale, the world’s most important recurring art festival, will focus on outsiders, foreigners, and more, highlighting artists who have traveled at various points in their careers.

    Pedrosa has named the show “Foreigners Everywhere,” a reference to a 2004 Claire Fontaine piece featuring that phrase spelled out in many different colors and languages. That work is itself an allusion to a Turin-based anarchist collective of the same name in Italian, Stranieri Ovunque.

    On its past edition, in 2022, the Art Biennale welcomed approximately 800 000 visitors!
