At the Erastudio Apartment-Gallery the exhibition Look Back by renowned architect Nanda Vigo on Mario Ceroli and Ettore Sottsass Jr.  Looking back to the past towards a Master like Ettore Sottsass Jr. and an Artist like Mario Ceroli “abetista” par excellence. This is also a look throughout the concept of “classic” to the question “What’s going on today?, or a “continuum” through the admiration of the previous experiences.   So they can be observed through the Murano glasses, the chickens by Koen Vanmechelen, or the lighting glasses - like a console or a lamp - designed by Nanda Vigo; from the tables of Carlo Trucchi to a memory of Alessandro Mendini and to the funny art pieces of the Bounty Killart.” Nanda Vigo.
