Movement...in motion.
The plastic one, proper to Flavio Lucchini's artistic vision, and that of the images of the interesting "total effect" reel made by MuseoCity on the occasion of the "In Tour" event, edition 2022 - scheduled from October 21 to 23 not only in Milan but also in other, numerous Lombardy locations - which sees FlavioLucchiniArt Museum present in as many as two of the 13 itineraries included in the program.
It would be quite appropriate to exclaim thus upon discovering in a public presentation by the Milan's Mayor and Aldermen how the city outlines for 2030, when it seems that the air is going to be clean and traffic cancelled, parks are going to be widespread, housing is affordable, schools restored, public transportation electric, when citizen safety is going to be guaranteed, sports are going to be diffused, culture is going to be everywhere, etc. etc. in the 9 municipalities and 20 downtown areas, happy islands where everything works perfectly.
"We wanted to meet you to let you know and, I hope, appreciate the level of responsibility we have faced these not easy period we are living, especially because this city has all the skills to get out of these difficult moments and to be confirmed as the big international city that it is... A city polycentric, responsible, attractive". With these words, the Mayor of Milan Beppe Sala introduces from the stage of the restored Teatro Lirico, the meeting "Milan grows Milan helps" aimed at journalists, councilors, representatives of change and presents the thirteen councilors who are taking part in the city's regeneration project.
Both. That's the unmistakable answer provided by Egyptian filmmaker Ali Ali's photo exhibition "Rockin' Mamas," offered at Superstudio Più's art gallery from Oct. 13 to 18. The reason for this thesis is perfectly clear: "White nights made of excess and unruliness: today, the real rock stars do not perform on a stage, but go on stage every day in our homes...," the director explains.
The exhibition in MyOwngallery reconfirms the attention that Superstudio's lines of thought and activities constantly pay to the feminine "living, doing and feeling" in our time and in our world, on the aesthetic and cultural as well as the ethical and social level. Superstudio's own reading of this theme is developed with great consistency, articulating itself, however, in proposals and projects that are very different from each other, always proposing original and not infrequently highly.
… to dozens of museums in Milan and in other major Italian cities Saturday an extraordinary opening is scheduled, Saturday 8 October from 10am to 6pm, of the space located inside Superstudio Più, in Via Tortona 27. The occasion is given by the eighteenth "Giornata del Contemporaneo", organized by AMACI, Association of Italian Contemporary Art Museums.
The participation of FlavioLucchiniArt Museum in the event is absolutely motivated: for intents, contents, exhibition concept, its identity is firmly placed within an articulated and continuously expanding network of institutions in which the value of contemporaneity is defined in particular by a deep interconnection between art, design and fashion, with an appeal that is becoming more and more important.
Milan is the first Italian city for wine consumption and the fourth worldwide.

An evolved taxi, electric, sustainable, modular, multifunction, it seems to be any driver's dream. A project that the company Etioca has made possible with Miner, presented in the spaces in Via Tortona 27.
The automotive world since the beginning has been able to understand and interact with Superstudio Più's DNA as a gate to present trends, novelties and anticipations through artistic contaminations or technological defiances.
From the very first car entirely designed by a team of women (Volvo) to the futuristic truck designed by Luigi Colani, from Tesla's Cybertruck to the modular vehicle by Rinspeed that within the 2018 Superdesign Show anticipated an electric, multiplatform prototype that was indicating the future of community transport.

Exactly 21 years ago, in 1991, I organized the first great photographic exhibition at Via Della Spiga in Milan for Giovanni Gastel, at the time a very young and excited collaborator of “Donna”, the magazine whose I have been editor in chief for years. Now Giovanni is not here any longer, but both the regret and the memory remain of a brilliant artist who returns to via della Spiga in Milan thanks to an open air exhibition, "Flower", curated by Denis Curti, from 20 September to 4 October.
The floral theme had often been contemplated by me together with Giovanni Gastel, while he was carrying out his artistic research which he began at a very young age, in 1982, especially on our two most important magazines of those years, “Donna” and “Mondo Uomo”. This topic came back a long time later, after I left the publishing world, even if not toatally, so I decided to evaluate this subject for a tradition breaking exhibition in my new Myowngallery at Superstudio Più, where I experimented contrasting artistic languages in different mixes.
Speaking about contemporary art starting from flowers seemed then an oxymoron. Those were times when cultivated photography and avant-garde art did not deal with romantic themes. They were not looking for beauty, but rather for provocation, politics, shock. I did not wanted anything of all that for this first exhibition which in my intentions should to look beyond, rescuing beauty and also romance and elegance.
