Triennale di Milano / April 2013 / Ministry of Culture, Sports and Tourism / Korea Craft & Design Foundation
For the exhibition “Constancy & Change in Korean Traditional Craft 2013” at the Triennale of Milan on the occasion of Salone del Mobile 2013, Migliore + Servetto Architects has designed an essential set up, with a strong visual and emo-tional impact, able to exalt the shapes and perfection of the works of Korean masters.
It’s a neutral environment, far from all contexts, where great hanging membranes protect the objects, covering them with the thin transparency of the fabric’s weave. Above them a mix of cables and pulleys, as torecall the manufacturing tradition; below them, along two long white lightboxes, the works of art, wrapped in rays of light; on the background walls, 11 videos give back a more detailed narration, that leads to a deeper analysis of each work.
On the entrance walls, great mirroring surfaces host dynamic videos and images, generating multiple
reflexes and giving space to a new unexpected dimension.
