Poltronova / La casa non domestica

Poltronova / La casa non domestica Two shows in one act [or one show in two acts] September 24 / October 23, 2020 Contemporary Cluster - Palazzo Cavallerini Lazzaroni via dei Barbieri 7, Rome La casa non domestica, curated by Gabriele Mastrigli, takes its clue from the celebrated 1971 issue of the Milan magazine, IN – Argomenti e immagini di design, dedicated to the theme of “destroying the object”. According to the curators of the issue, the Florentine groups Archizoom and Superstudio, objects are no longer made bearing specific meanings. Destroying them means challenging the traditional formal structures of the built environment, releasing the very notion of design from any predetermined relationship between form and function, either on a material or symbolic level.
