What is the future in the 21st century? What does it still have in common with the future of speed and disruption of patterns that the futurists talked about?

A special edition with five events of the cycle The Stories of Art dedicated to Futurism as an extraordinary example of a modernity that transforms and adapts over the years. With a broad and interdisciplinary approach, Futurism has influenced the world of art and contemporary creativity in all its artistic and temporal facets.

In the first event, Sofia Gnoli, fashion scholar, university professor, and journalist, talks to us about Elsa Schiaparelli and Salvatore Ferragamo, Emilio Pucci and Alessandro Michele, designers at opposite poles who have made some key concepts and words of futurism a manifesto of their style. Starting from the Manifesto of Futurist Women's Fashion, this meeting will highlight resonances and short circuits between fashion and the countless ideals of futurism.
