Grandi Legni and Etchings
At the Nilufar Depot Gallery in Milan, until May 7th, 2022, the exhibition Grandi Legni e Acqueforti, by Andrea Branzi. Nilufar Gallery, founded in the early 1990s by Nina Yashar, has focused on vintage and contemporary design over the years. Alongside the works of the great Masters of the mid-twentieth century, the gallery holds exhibitions with contemporary designers, exploring artistic cross-pollination. Since 2015, Nilufar Depot, an ample space inspired by the Teatro alla Scala and hosting a selection of the rich Nilufar collection, joined the via della Spiga location.

The exhibition Grandi Legni and Etchings displays unique pieces designed by Andrea Branzi and co-produced by Nilufar and Design Gallery Milano. For Andrea Branzi, one of the most prominent figures in contemporary Italian design, a leading exponent of Radical architecture, and founder of the Archizoom studio, this year will be a very busy one. In fact, Branzi will participate in the XXIII Triennale and publish a monograph on his work. Galleria Nilufar, therefore, is hosting an exhibition dedicated to his work in this important year. The show includes five Grandi Legni (“Big Woods”), nine artists’ proofs, and a panel from the Architettura Povera series. The Etchings and artist’s proofs featured in the exhibition include works from the Branzi Architettura Povera series, which depicts fences and other simple, yet enigmatic environments, marked by a distinctive aura and “secular sacredness.” There will also be a panel from the Assolo di Croci series depicting the symbol of the Cross, conceived as an environmental sign, which can define the meaning of any place.
