An instrument par excellence of the architect’s practice, the study table represents what the easel is for the painter and what the score is for the musician, or the zero degree of creation. The table will host a Cucinella project and will be a testing ground for architects and young scholars.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Architecture plays a leading role in the Museo Novecento, a building which, overlooking Piazza Santa Maria Novella, assumes the role of trait d’union between the works of art exhibited inside and one of the greatest masterpieces of Renaissance architecture: the facade of the basilica by Leon Battista Alberti. It therefore seemed only right to invite architecture to enter a building that benefits from its vision so intensely. Art and its “container”, architecture, thus initiate a harmonious dialogue that we hope will be of great interest.<\/p>\n<\/div><\/div>\n<\/div><\/div><\/div>\n\n\n\n
