This is the third episode in the trilogy on the birth and rise of Italian design, in which the Saloni were both promoters and protagonists last year with the theatrical production “Great Hands: Without End” realized with the Piccolo Teatro and the fourth edition of the Triennale Design Museum “Dream Factories”.
The main event at the Saloni 2012 is dedicated to the men, the companies and, in particular, to the hundreds of objects that laid the ground for the Italian design system and its aspirations.
“Design Dance” – a project by Michela Marelli and Francesca Molteni – enables the works by the protagonists of design to speak and act, dance even. The objects become actors and storytellers because, as with all the fruits of human creativity, they narrate the emotional run-up to their inception.
Modern day objects and objects from the past, classical and modern, together with SaloneSatellite designs that have “come true” by going into production.
A story, a narrative, but also and above all a dance, an infinite sequence of actions.
Moments when the objects behave like real actors, moments when the objects interact with actors and dancers. “Design Dance” is exactly this: a performance made up of voices, bodies and objects, narrating the marvelous story of design. It is a moving homage to those many forefathers who enabled us to be born into and grow up in a better world than the one they came into and lived in. It is an attempt to channel their enthusiasm and power into a bid to look to the future, heads held high.
