A month (from 6 November to 6 December) of art, design and gastronomy, with a packed programme of encounters, performances and tastings. Trieste based coffee company illycaffè together with Moroso has opened a temporary gallery in the Milan showroom in via Pontaccio.

From Tuesday to Sunday, from 10 to 19, the space will be open to the public with a library of art, photography, design and fashion (in collaboration with three publishers: Charta, Contrasto and Corraini) and an exhibition dedicated to the legendary ‘illycollection’, the cups created by over a hundred different artists since 1992, with a new edition by Michael Lin. To complete the daily programme, menus from the Università del Caffè in Trieste and a menu of designer desserts.

At 1900h (until 2100h), encounters with artists and designers: Patricia Urquiola (23 November), Vito Acconci (24 November), Ross Lovegrove (30 November) and Marina Abramovic with her students (1 December). Encounters with writers Dacia Maraini and Giuseppe Cederna (22 November), authours of illystories. Finally, with the Nobel peace prize Guatemalan Rigoberta Menchù, together with journalist Gianni Minà (26 November). E.S.
