ITALY: A New Collective Landscape at HKDI Gallery – ARTOMITY 藝源 100 Italian designers under 35 / ITALY: A New Collective Landscape Jan 19 – May 19, 2024 / Curated by Angela Rui / HKDI Gallery Hong Kong Design Institute 3 King Ling Road, Tseung Kwan O Northern Territories, Hong Kong +852 3928 2566 Wednesday – Monday, 10am – 8pm hkdi.eu.hk Fresh off its successful debut at Milan’s ADI Design Museum last year, the touring exhibition is on display at HKDI Gallery. A response to the enduring Italy: The New Domestic Landscape – a group exhibition at the Museum of Modern Art (MoMA) in New York in 1972 – ITALY: A New Collective Landscape features 100 Italian designers under 35, who attempt to grapple with the challenges of the current global moment while at the same time exploring the pluralistic possibilities of design. The configuration of the exhibition highlights congruences with respect to three design virtues – systemic, relational and regenerative – operating under the assumption this landscape could be reconfigured in a myriad of new readings and associations.
