  • Kartell Célèbre L'icône De La Marque, Créée Par Anna Castelli Ferrieri
    Kartell célèbre l’icône de la marque, créée par Anna Castelli Ferrieri Un classique intemporel, depuis toujours tourné vers le futur : Componibili a 50 ans et Kartell dédie un événement spécial à cette icône intemporelle, créée par Anna Castelli Ferrieri et devenue immédiatement un succès commercial durable de la marque. Pour célébrer cet anniversaire, il a été demandé à des designers, des conservateurs, des critiques et des intellectuels du monde entier d’apporter leur propre contribution personnelle. À l›occasion de l›ouverture du « Salone del Mobile 2017 », la boutique phare de Milan, située Via Turati, est transformée en exposition débutant le mardi 4 avril et s’achevant le 9 avril. L’histoire des Componibili fait une place à l’objet dans son évolution au fi l des décennies, en présentant les produits de manière théâtrale dans toutes leurs couleurs et hauteurs, grâce à un grand nombre d’images, de dessins d’archives et de documents qui les accompagnent. L’acteur principal de l’exposition, qui va devenir un modèle d’exposition transportable applicable dans d’autres musées et lieux d’exposition internationaux de prestige, est par conséquent le produit lui-même, dans sa déclinaison passée et actuelle. « L’anniversaire des Componibili d’Anna Castelli Ferrieri, est un événement très spécial, comportant de nombreuses signifi cations dans la mesure où il relate les origines et les racines de Kartell et où il a marqué l’histoire du design par sa dimension de nouveauté absolue, devenant une icône des produits industriels, a déclaré Claudio Luti, président de Kartell. Les Componibili sont pour moi un «objet» familial, ils ont toujours fait partie de ma «vie».

  • Fabio Novembre: “La Città Per Me È Una Ragnatela Sentimentale, La Sento Mia, Ogni Angolo È Legato Ai Ricordi”
    MARZO - APRILE 2012 N. 07 CLUB MILANO Fabio Novembre: “La città per me è una ragnatela sentimentale, la sento mia, ogni angolo è legato ai ricordi”. Due fotografi, un caravan e un anno a disposizione per raccontare il volto nascosto e inaspettato del Giappone. L’ultima tendenza? Dare vita a locali e negozi alla moda mantenendo le insegne storiche della vecchia Milano. Spazi infiniti, colori indimenticabili e silenzio assoluto, questa è la magia del deserto a qualsiasi latitudine.

Una tappa importante per chi ci ha lavorato con passione e per chi ci ha investito tanto. Ho scritto volu- tamente “progetto” perché pensare, costruire e far crescere un prodotto editoriale oggi è quanto di più “progettuale” si possa pensare. La passione, i sogni e lo slancio che tutti i giorni ci spingono ad andare oltre le difficoltà a un certo punto devono necessariamente lasciare spazio alla fredda legge dei numeri. Un progetto è prima di tutto una visione, ma per rimanere tale e non dissolversi come neve al sole deve avere lo sguardo lungo e le basi solide. Io credo fortemente che per Club Milano sia così. Da parte nostra abbiamo cercato di raccontare la città che ci ospita e che amiamo con lo spirito a volte di un cronista, a volte di un viaggiatore curioso. Milano è molto più dinamica e multiforme di quanto appaia a chi ci vive e ne è in parte assuefatto.
