talks among friends

talks among friends

 

A series of conversations on art, friendship and "all those situations where the final work is the result of more than one person's efforts."  created in partnership with five Milan-based institutions.

 

Inspired by the figure of Robert Rauschenberg, with the aim of honoring the principles at the heart of his work - openness to the world, interdisciplinarity, commitment to dialogue, and collaboration - as well as by the title of Rauschenberg's last major retrospective, Among Friends, miart, in the months leading up to the fair, will bring to life and showcase "artistic friendship", embodied in the commitment to equal, mutual support and genuine solidarity.

 

This vision has led to the creation of talks among friends, a series of events celebrating the ability of Milan's cultural institutions to foster partnerships and synergies that transcend the distinction between public and private, extend beyond traditional boundaries, and explore new disciplines while engaging with public spaces.

 

Each of the five participating institutions – Fondazione Prada, Museo del Novecento, PAC Padiglione d'Arte Contemporanea, Pirelli HangarBicocca, and Triennale Milano – has designed and curated a public event centered on the theme of collaboration, reflecting its own ongoing research and current exhibitions.
