New York | The Met Musée

The Impossible Exhibition

We believe that Miuccia Prada should have withdrawed from the project. The wordrobe to present the themes speaks for itself:

Waist Up.Waist Down→Neck Up.Knees Down→Ugly Chic→Hard Chic→Naïf Chic →The Classical Body→The Exotic Body→The Surreal Body

Poor. No Poetry. No Magic.

We are not at the helm of Valentino’s in L’Ara Pacis (2007, Rome). Désolé. The mixing of two great his tories is too much to forge an antropologia culturale of this magnitude. Why trying the impossible when the possible is richer, emotionally engaging. We go to Schiaparelli. We go to Prada.

Sometimes the impossible is indeed impossible.
