Luca Meda/ La felicità del progetto
The Triennale di Milano, in collaboration with IUAV University of Venice-Project Archives, Molteni&C, Dada and UniFor, paid tribute to Luca Meda, who played a leading role in an extraordinary and important period of Italian architecture and design, one that continues to influence the new generations still today.
Through a rich and exuberant collection of drawings, study sketches , projects, models, catalogs, photographs, and objects, the exhibition narrates and describes the versatile nature of a man who profoundly marked the history of design and architecture between the 1960s and 90s.
Artist, but at the same time artisan and manufacturer, Luca Meda represents a rare example of perfect symbiosis between creativity and business, art and industry. The exhibition was curated by Nicola Braghieri, Rosa Chiesa, Serena Maffioletti and Sofia Meda, with exhibit design by Chiara Meda and Nicola Gallizia, and the valuable contribution of the Swiss graphic artist Felix Humm, with whom Luca Meda worked together for many years to create the company images of Molteni&C and Dada. For the Molteni Group the exhibition represented an occasion to pay tribute to the designer and friend who contributed so much and for so long in defining the company identity. It has been rich and joyous journey.
