“MEMPHIS AGAIN” Triennale Milano Last days to visit until 12th June 2022 "At this point contemporary figurative culture does not pursue eternity, lasting monumentality, but timeliness, more or less local and momentaneous necessities, namely what with slight disdain people call fashion, which for me is the utmost. The Milanese professional establishment, on the other hand, regarding this story of fashion, was very angry and scandalized. They said Memphis had no cultural foundations, no future, that we were just muddying the waters, nothing more" Ettore Sottsass #MemphisAgain #TriennaleMilano

“MEMPHIS AGAIN” Triennale Milano exhibition until June 12th, 2022 “Memphis rejected the inevitability of the reassuring technical drawing imposed by the industry, and dreamed of redesigning everything, of giving the world a multiple image, lighthearted, witty, free-spirited” Martine Bedin #MemphisAgain #TriennaleMilano

“MEMPHIS AGAIN” Triennale Milano exhibition until June 12th, 2022 “Memphis does not repudiate the functional utopia, but it observes functionality with eyes wide open, more like an anthropologist than a marketing manager. Hence a functionality related not only to certain ergonomic standards or statistics of salability, but also to the vision of a public necessity, a historical thrust” Barbara Radice #MemphisAgain #TriennaleMilano
