7 W to Host Ceramica Magnifica

Jan 13, 2009

Italian ceramic design will take center stage during Ceramica Magnifica! Celebration of a Heritage, an exhibition of sculptures and decorative objects highlighting the importance and diversity of Italian ceramic design at 7 W. After a successful launch at the Westchester Italian Cultural Center (WICC) in October, the exhibit will open on Jan. 25 in time for the New York Gift & Home Textiles Market Week.

Featuring the works of acclaimed international architects, artists and designers -- including Krizia, Adam Tihany, Ottavio Missoni, Giuliana de Camerino, Massimo Vignelli, Alessandro Mendini, Federica Marangoni and many others -- the exhibition is curated by renowned Italian artist Federica Marangoni and Evelyn Rossetti, executive director of WICC.

The content of the exhibit is rooted in the medieval Italian city of Este, which has held a Contemporary Ceramic Triennale since 2001. For Ceramica Magnifica, Rossetti and Marangoni pulled the best of the best from the past nine years. The result is a mix of 49 pieces from the whimsical to the innovative that pay homage to Este's artistic tradition.

Ceramica Magnifica will remain on view at 7 W through the Spring Tabletop Market, which will take place April 21-24, 2009. The building is finalizing its spring lineup of art shows, which are held on the 11th floor Market Suites, and plans to make this exhibition open to the public for select periods during the art show circuit. Visit www.7wnewyork.com as dates and times will be announced in the coming months.
