An immersive experience, a retrospective exhibition, a celebration of the future. Masters of Light - From Vienna to Milan is the first multi-faceted exploration of the rich story and innovative spirit of Swarovski, one of the world’s oldest heritage brands. Arriving in Milan, the heart of Italian fashion, the exhibition is presented across the internal salons of Palazzo Citterio, the magnificent extension of Pinacoteca di Brera - the perfect location to reveal the evolution of Swarovski’s artistry and savoir-faire.
クリスタルは光をとらえ、変化させます。そのきらめきをまとったアイテムは、Swarovskiならではの輝きを放ちます。「Masters of Light」展示室では、これをファッションに取り入れた、とっておきの例を紹介しています。中でもひときわ目を引くのが、1995年秋冬シーズンにジャンニ・ヴェルサーチが手がけたオートクチュールガウンです。Swarovskiのクリスタル・メッシュの純粋な輝きを初めてクチュールの世界に取り入れたアイテムです。
Diamonds of the Future Chamber
Title:
Exploring new frontiers in man-made materials, Swarovski Created Diamonds are the next step in Swarovski’s mastery of light. Refined in a sophisticated laboratory setting that compresses millions of years into weeks, a tiny carbon ‘seed’ develops, layer by layer, into a laboratory grown diamond, which is precision-cut and polished with Swarovski’s century-old jewellery expertise.
To celebrate Masters of Light - From Vienna to Milan, we have created an Una Angelic Milan capsule collection, named after the first European destination to host the exhibition. The collection is available in the exhibition’s pop-up store, inside Palazzo Citterio, and other select boutiques.
The Mathemagical Chamber showcases jewelry featuring Swarovski Crystals in complex plays of shape and form, alongside exceptional home objects and components for fashion. Part atelier, part laboratory, this chamber fuses the logic of science with the magic of creation. Central to the space are jewelry-couture pieces by Swarovski Global Creative Director Giovanna Engelbert for the 2024 Met Gala, which highlight Swarovski’s superlative artisanship.
The Jewelry Box
Title:
‘I curated this chamber as an ode to Swarovski Crystal. It celebrates Swarovski’s history as creators of crystal - and our modern heritage as a jewelry brand since 1977. Inspiration comes from the savoir-faire of our artistry, the geometric form of each jewel, and the prism of color that crystal creates when charmed by light. These have each shaped my designs - crystal cuts inspire the forms of our modern icons: the Millenia, the Lucent, the Harmonia, the Mesmera. All crystallize our DNA.’ Global Creative Director, Giovanna Engelbert.
Pop Icons Chamber
The stage and cinema costumes, fashion items, and red-carpet ensembles exhibited in the Pop Icons Chamber illustrate how creatives have always turned to Swarovski to transport audiences and craft dreams. More than just famous, these individuals have reshaped contemporary culture across the globe, their wardrobes an expression of their freedom and personal values. Swarovski is an essential component to communicate their creative attitudes.
