May Calendar of Fondaziona Prada Milan

On the occasion of the opening of its new Milan venue on 9 May 2015, Fondazione Prada will present a wide range of activities.Robert Gober and Thomas Demand will realize site-specific installations in dialogue with the industrial architecture and the new spaces in the compound.Roman Polanski will explore the cinematographic inspirations behind his artistic vision, which will translate into a new documentary and a series of film screenings. Selections of artworks from the Prada Collection will be presented in a series of thematic exhibitions. ‘Serial Classic’—an exhibition curated by Salvatore Settis in collaboration with Anna Anguissola—will complete the program. The project, whose display system has been conceived by OMA, focuses on classical sculpture and explores the ambivalent relationship between originality and imitation in Roman culture and its insistence on the circulation of multiples as an homage to Greek art.
