Carlo De Carli Corollary: architecture as an ethical and poetic act
Inaugurated on March 17 and visitable until May 7, 2025, set up in the spaces of the Politecnico di Milano, it represents a rich and unprecedented journey into the work of one of the protagonists of Italian architecture and design in the post-war period.
Carlo De Carli Corollary is a crossing, an act of deep listening towards a design thinking that never separates doing from being. Curated by Lola Ottolini, Margherita De Carli, Claudio Camponogara, Gianni Ottolini, and Roberto Rizzi, the exhibition recomposes a living legacy, restoring to Carlo De Carli his role as an integral figure of Italian architecture: architect, designer, theorist, teacher, promoter of culture.
Through furniture, paintings, drawings, letters, notes, texts, and unpublished materials, the exhibition's path is articulated in eight corollaries - pieces that, like living cells, provide a complex and coherent vision, capable of simultaneously inhabiting art and technology, philosophical reflection, and productive concreteness.
