From 10 June to 11 September 2011, the Palazzo Reale will host the anthological exhibition “KRGR. Bob Krieger. Memories of Photography and Art”. Bob Krieger is an Italian photographer whose work in fashion and portraiture has been published worldwide.

The exhibit “Goya and the modern world“, at the Palazzo Reale from 17 March to 27 June 2010, presents an artist who inspired the stylistic movements of the 19th and 20th centuries. This exciting show of 180 works, including paintings, prints and drawings, depicts the relationship between Goya and other famous artists.

A retrospective exhibit on Armando Testa, a famous Italian graphic designer and multifaceted artist, at the Padiglione d’Arte Contemporanea [Contemporary Art Pavilion].

The show highlights the activity of Armando Testa, graphic designer and advertising artist, who is the author of characters and scenarios that have become part of the collective imagery of Italian society.

Until 2 May 2010, contemporary design enters four Milanese historic house museums and visits with the rooms, the paintings and the decorative works of art.

The Bagatti Valsecchi Museum, the Boschi Di Stefano House Museum, the Necchi Campiglio Villa and the Poldi Pezzoli Museum present, with almost imperceptible staging, an exhibit that brings together the signs of our time with those from past eras in spontaneously surprising harmony.

An audiovisual experiment of perceptive transformation in architecture, through abstract narration, which will show the building as a screen and protagonist simultaneously.
Imagine the façade of a building could have a brain and a conscience; consequently it could sleep and dream.
Imagine that these surreal forms of life have a characteristic to let loose, during the REM sleep period, a visible transposition of their dreams.

Milanese style from the 1700s to the present and period clothing will have a new home in the museum being set up in Via Sant’Andrea no. 6, known as Palazzo Morando.

From 12 to 14 March 2010, fieramilanocity in Milan is hosting the seventh edition of Fa’ la cosa giusta! [Do the right thing!], a national fair dedicated to critical consumption and sustainable lifestyles. The event is organised by Terre di mezzo and the non-profit organisation Insieme nelle terre di mezzo Onlus and sponsored by the following Italian companies: Novamont, Lush, Sigg, Cap Holding, Comieco, Caes Italia, S.N.M.S Cesare Pozzo, Atm, Amsa and Metropolitana Milanese.

The show is sponsored and funded by the Local Tourism Authority of the City of Milan and is in collaboration with the University of Milan. The exhibit covers the history of an outstanding, iconic Milanese family and their fundamental contribution to the development of scientific culture in Italy. It has been more than 120 years since Giovanni De Agostini introduced modern cartography to Italy, which has allowed readers to see nature and land morphology represented on paper and to imagine the world that surrounds them.<

The MiArt aim is to be positioned among the most important art exhibitions in the world. MiArt must be synonym of artistic excellence, of a privileged place for cultural encounters and of a strategic occasion for exchanges because quality is the best guarantee for sure investments.
In 2010, the top of the Italian galleries and a selection of the foreign ones will expose at MiArt, to make a considerable number of big italian and international collectors join the exhibition.
