The exhibition expresses and emphasizes the importance of\u00a0 Tuscan productive realities role, rooted in the territory From the 50\u2019s.\u00a0 It highlights the ability to select and attract talents, especially in the world of art and architecture, which has contributed to divulgate the contemporary image of Italian design in the world. The exhibition focuses on furniture and everyday objects made in porcelain, ceramics, glass, silver, crystal, marble as well as graphic design works by leading Italian and international designers.<\/p>\n

In fact is exactly during the mid-50s, when Tuscany started a design research process, influenced by\u00a0 the most relevant protagonists of the international design scene such as Michelucci, il Gruppo Toscano, Gio Ponti, Angiolo Mazzoni, Richard Neutra, Adalberto Libera, Corradino D ‘Ascanio. Thanks to the first industrial companies like Piaggio and Richard-Ginori, and then companies like Poltronova and Martinelli, started a phase of experimentation and collaborations with leading designers like Sottsass, Castiglioni, Zanini, Buti, Tuhn, Mendini, to name some. Later in the ’80s, the artisan company Fantacci, based in Prato, which was already the producer of Michelucci furniture for Poltronova, continues to increase the production of the great architect, through a collaboration with the Fondazione Michelucci. The exhibition takes a look also to the contemporary realities and self-productions of the first decade of the twenty century, demonstrating that “Creativa Produzione\u201d or creative production, it is still a steady and ongoing process.<\/p>\n
