What happens when Giacomo Balla meets Paul Klee, today?

One room gathers Balla’s light-and-color studies and design sketches—sugar bowls, cups, bar cabinets, bookshelves. In dialogue sit Boccioni’s Futurism, Klee’s line, Casorati’s sheets, Spazzapan and Villani’s fishermen, and Sironi’s figures.

Because process sits beside product, viewers track ideas from draft to object, so curators and collectors recalibrate value. A thread on identity—echoing Warhol’s unstable surface—adds timely tension.

A Turin focus spotlights Accademia Albertina’s School of Engraving, with Marcello Boglione, Mario Calandri, and Ettore De Fornaris. For institutions, works on paper and design prototypes can clarify process for audiences.

How would you curate or collect across painting, design, and print without muddying the narrative?
