The Blonde Ambition: Exhibition Milan

#Culture

From 21st June to 22nd September, "ALFRED HITCHCOCK in the great films of Universal Pictures" at Palazzo Reale in Milan.

The technical partnership between Living Divani and Alef Cultural continues with the exhibition “ALFRED HITCHCOCK in the films of Universal Pictures”, to be held at Palazzo Reale, Milan, reaffirming the company's presence in the world of art and culture.

This joint experience began with the Klimt exhibition, and continued with the Renoir retrospective and the Dracula exhibition; now, Living Divani is providing a number of its Bubble Rock chairs with their hallmark carefree elegance, to furnish one of the rooms, in which the theme is a celebration of the great master of suspense and some of his greatest works. Another room at the exhibition will be dedicated entirely to music, which was such a fundamental and integral element in Hitchcock's works.

The exhibition is promoted by the Culture Office of the City of Milan, Palazzo Reale and Alef-Cultural Project Management, with the special collaboration of Universal Pictures Italy Home Entertainment Division.

opening hours:
Monday 2.30 pm - 7.30 pm
Tuesday, Wednesday, Friday 9.30 am -7.30 pm
Thursdya and Saturday 9.30 am - 10.30 pm

Chanel's The Little Black Jacket exhibition, which recently exhibited at the Saatchi Gallery, first and foremost showcases the Chanel black jacket, an iconic tweed jacket which has become a staple in fashion conscious women's wardrobes since the time of Coco Chanel.

What woman hasn't dreamt of owning the statement black jacket?

Karl Lagerfeld photographed Chanel muses and celebrities for the exhibition, which he curated alongside Carine Roitfield.

The photographic exhibition witnesses a coming together of numerous celebrities with the fashion house, to produce potent images, which clarify the resonance that the black jacket still has today. I think that the exhibition emphasises the iconic status of the jacket, which is worn by men and women of all different ages and nationalities.

The exhibition appeals to the young as well as the old. Portraits of young, fashionable figures such as Joan Smalls, Edie Campbell and Elle Fanning draw in a young audience, eager to see their idols looking fabulous in their black jackets. An older audience is also reached out too, through portraits of nineties fashion icons Claudia Schiffer, Jane Birkin and Linda Evangelista which show that the black jacket is a coveted piece for an older generation as well as a younger one.

I think that what is particularly exciting about the exhibition is that no one image is the same. The Chanel jackets are styled in different ways according to the personality wearing it. Freja Beha presents us with a Chanel nun, Elle Fanning, wears a chain of flowers in her hair, which embody an innocent, youthful vibe, whilst Lily Donaldson's portrait has a punkish look to it.

The way that the little black jacket is styled in so many different ways, is evidence of the versatility of Chanel's black jacket. This is an exhibition, which pays tribute to this, as well as the jacket’s international appeal and long standing status as an essential fashion item.

The Kiss, 1969

Picasso returns to Milan with a major retrospective: over 200 works including paintings, drawings, sculptures and photographs. The exhibition is curated by Anne Baldassari, internationally recognised as one of the most important experts on the artist and curator of the Musée National Picasso in Paris, where the world's largest collection of works by the Spanish artist is kept.

The anthology represents a true chronological excursus of Picasso’s production, comparing the techniques and forms of expression with which the author has tried his hand in his long career, an uninterrupted evolution of the artistic expression that runs parallel to the history of twentieth century art: amongst the many masterpieces in the exhibition are "La Celestina" (1904), "Man with the mandolin" (1911), "Portrait of Olga" (1918), "Two women Running on the Beach" (1922 ), "Paul as Harlequin" (1924), "Portrait of Dora Maar" and "The Suppliant" (1937).

Also present will be documentation on the historic exhibition of 1953 when, for the first time in Italy, the large canvas of "Guernica" was exhibited at the Palazzo Reale (1937).

Exhibition curated by: Department of Culture, Fashion and Design of the Municipality of Milan, Palazzo Reale 24 ORE Cultura – Gruppo 24 ORE Catalogo 24 ORE Cultura.
