Chi ha più coraggio: chi se ne va o chi lascia andare via? Il sogno della bottega rinascimentale, dove il capomastro passa il testimone al suo allievo, è più che mai contemporaneo. Per capire se può diventare realtà abbiamo incontrato alcuni “garzoni” emancipati.

Che cosa fare davanti a una copia? Viene prodotta solo dai cinesi? Proteggere il copyright ha un senso al tempo di internet? L’autenticità è ancora un plus? Vale davvero tutti i soldi che costa?

The bitter taste of La Dolce Vita

Where is Italy going? A (very lively!!) conversation with Enzo Mari, Alberto Meda, Massimo Morozzi published on DAMn magazine out now. Read full story here: DAMn26MMM

Italy is no longer what it used to be. Gone are the times, in the Fifties and Sixties, when the country was looked upon as a herald of style and as the shaping force of contemporary design. Today its talents run abroad, companies tap into foreign schools, universities are not on the international map of the best institutions. What happened to Italy and its design culture? We have asked Enzo Mari (78), Massimo Morozzi (70) and Alberto Meda (65) about ideas and recipes for change.
