ventura lambrate is dead 2010-17. long live ventura. milan design week.

Oct 18, 2017

one of main venues in recent years during milan’s annual design week in april, ventura lambrate, has shut down. the crowds and content that came to the area has come with a price. gentrification. “the success of ventura lambrate also meant that the area came into development,” said margriet vollenberg, founder and curator of ventura projects.

when art and design activity goes up in an area the rents go up and the art galleries and showrooms relocate. a few big brands come and stay but the economics hit the emerging talent most. in addition to rent increases, the development brought in happenings that didn’t align with vollenberg’s vision making it very difficult to curate and maintain the quality the visitors have grown accustom to.

in 2018 a new venue will emerge, ventura future. the site, the milanese liberty house, futurdome. once the meeting place of world renowned artists such as carlo belloli, filippo tommaso marinetti and fortunato depero who together with giacomo balla and umberto boccioni, were a part of the futurist movement. the historical building has been restored along the lines of the futuristic ideals and has over 1400 square meters to exhibit the best of the best in contemporary design. “of course a new location means a new way of presenting and exhibiting. however ventura future will be all about offering a platform for emerging talents and independent labels.

Dec 5, 2016

despite a growing appreciation for twentieth-century architecture in recent years, great works continue to be lost to neglect, deterioration, and demolition only decades after their design and construction. in 2006, responding to growing threats to modern architecture, wmf launched its modernism at risk initiative with knoll as founding sponsor. the initiative provides a framework for addressing the issues that endanger modern landmarks and supports architectural advocacy, conservation, and public education.

this year, the jury selected molenaar & co. architecten (rotterdam), hebly theunissen architecten (delft), and landscape architect michael van gessel (amsterdam) as the recipients of the 2016 world monuments fund/knoll modernism prize for the preservation and rehabilitation of the justus van effen complex in rotterdam, the netherlands. the biennial award will be presented at the museum of modern art (moma), new york, on 5 december 2016, by mr. joshua david; barry bergdoll, meyer schapiro professor of art history and archaeology at columbia university, curator of architecture & design at moma, and chairman of the prize jury; and mr. cogan. the award presentation, a free and public event, will be followed by a presentation by the members of the prize-winning team.
