An installation to explain the Expo
The international Expo of 2015 begins to reach the awareness of the general public, thanks to a project at the State University
They say that Milan, in April, during Design Week, turns into a sort of big, widespread outdoor culture machine, on design and its newest expressions. But this year it would have been impossible not to also address the question of Expo 2015. The Expo planners took part in the FuoriSalone event, in the installations produced by Interni, to make initial contact with an international audience of designers, but also throngs of curious visitors from the city and the world. An installation was set up in the 18th-century Cortile d’Onore of the State University. The title was ‘Interni for Expo 2015’, and it offered a sort of symbolic map to begin to make people aware of the Expo’s theme, ‘Feeding the Planet, Energy for Life’, covering everything that has to do with food, the problem of lack of food in many zones of the world, and the questions of nutritional education. Architect Italo Rota was asked to transform the theme into a real project, using his dreamy, symbolic approach: “This is a pavilion – the architect explains – that also becomes a diagram to understand, think and imagine the next five years that separate us from the event. Numbers, images, projects and visions are represented. We will attempt to inform people about the concepts on which the Expo will work”.
