Join us for this year’s Curatorial Innovations Lecture with Paola Antonelli, senior curator of architecture and design at the Museum of Modern Art, New York.
The XXII Triennale di Milano presented the exhibition Broken Nature: Design Takes on Human Survival, which highlighted the concept of “restorative design,” plotting its role in surveying our species’ bonds with the complex systems in the world and in designing reparations, when necessary, through objects, concepts, and new systems. In this talk, Antonelli will take stock of the experience, casting the exhibition against the turbulent geopolitical background of the past year, describing which of its ambitions were met and which were not.

Paola Antonelli, Senior Curator, Department of Architecture and Design; Director of Research & Development, The Museum of Modern Art, New York
