Triennale Design Museum. Il museo mutante is the volume that opens the series dedicated to the Triennale Design Museum of Triennale Milano.
Curated by Silvana Annicchiarico, the book brings together ten chapters corresponding to the ten exhibitions that, since 2007, have shaped the museum’s identity through different perspectives on the history of Italian design.
Published by Electa, the volume portrays a museum capable of constantly renewing itself, offering ever-changing paths and points of view on a discipline that is still alive.
The challenge
To represent a history that is not definitive but continuously evolving.
To hold together ten exhibitions and ten curatorial perspectives — from Alessandro Mendini to Germano Celant — without reducing them to a single narrative.
The solution
The book is structured into ten chapters, each associated with a specific color, representing different ways of interpreting Italian design.
Each section presents a selection of works organized according to different criteria — chronological, thematic, alphabetical — reflecting the plurality of approaches.
