Iconic Up5_6 Armchair at "Italia Sessanta. Arte, Moda e Design. Dal Boom al Pop"

The exhibition "Italia Sessanta. Arte, Moda e Design. Dal Boom al Pop" in Gorizia explores the eclectic decade of the 1960s in Italy, which was marked by profound social, political and creative changes. This exhibition curated by Carla Cerutti, Enrico Minio Capucci, Raffaella Sgubin and Lorenzo Michelli is taking place now at Palazzo Attems Petzenstein from 29 June to 27 October 2024. Visitors will enjoy a fascinating journey through the art, fashion and design of the era.

Design enthusiasts will find it impossible not to recognize the contribution of B&B Italia, an emblem of innovation and experimentation in furniture design of the 1960s. The brand is presenting the famous Up5_6 armchair by Gaetano Pesce, an iconic example of their revolutionary approach. The avant-garde design of this armchair demonstrates the innovative use of plastics and the perfect fusion between functionality and aesthetics to reveal the creative spirit of the era.

Other iconic pieces are on display, such as the 1965 Ferrari 275 GTB and the Lamborghini Miura which, like Up5, represent the pinnacle of Italian design in the world.
