The ADI Design Museum presents an exhibition centered on a publishing work by Luigi Patitucci, a designer, historian, and critic of design. Patitucci is one of the most multifaceted and intriguing figures in the international design landscape and currently the most prolific author in the field of design criticism. The exhibition, titled “Design is a Fairy Tale!”, features 23 oil paintings on canvas, one for each tale, all created by the author. Through his work, Patitucci explores the frequencies of contemporary tales, rewritten by eminent international figures from the media sphere of design, alongside contributions from renowned writers involved in this narrative endeavor.
