Backstage/A Sideview On The Moroso Design Collection

Now - 14th September, '08

Gallery 113
Walle 113, 8500 Kortrijk, Belgium

Gallery 113 presents the behind the scenes of Moroso, one of the world’s most innovative design producers.

Spread over 1,500m2, the exhibition unravels the working method of Patrizia Moroso and her role in transforming the firm from an old-fashioned upholstery business, founded by her parents, into the most innovative, creative, and famous producer of design furniture in Italy.

Featuring a rare selection of pictures, drawings, 3D models, prototypes and one-offs never seen before by the public, the exhibition will tell the story of twenty of Patrizia’s favourite pieces, including some that never went into production: from M.I. Ghini, the cartoonist whom she transformed into a designer when she first began as the creative director of Moroso, to the Bent armchair by Stefan Diez and Christophe de la Fontaine, and the brand new Quartz table by Arne Quinze.
