Pushing the boundaries of categories, the curated selection explores light as a material, stretching it to detour it from its primary function and proposing an artistic approach to the need to illuminate a space. Sculpting with Light will exclusively run online from March 24th to April 20th. It includes seminal works by Contemporary and Historical artists such as Nacho Carbonell, DRIFT, Franco Albini, Carlo Mollino, and Serge Mouille, among others. All works are available now and are unique or last editions.

Studio BBPR
Studio BBPR was an architectural and design studio established in Milan in 1932. BBPR is an acronym of its founders’ names: Gian Luigi Banfi, Lodovico Barbiano di Belgiojoso, Enrico Peressutti and Ernesto Nathan Rogers. The studio became an influential artistic and intellectual entity of Italian rationalism, embracing the philosophical concept of ideal proportions. The studio worked at the forefront of design and architecture throughout the 20th century, notably building the Torre Velasca, Milan, in 1954.
Campana Brothers
Co-founded in 1984 by brothers Fernando (1961–2022) and Humberto (1953) Campana, the Campana studio has gained international recognition for its innovative furniture and experimental design. Celebrated as a pioneer of disruptive design, the studio has established a groundbreaking visual language and, over four decades of practice, continues to shape the field.
