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.
Time Chamber
The Time Chamber reveals the metamorphosis of Swarovski’s story, the evolution of its savoir-faire, and its impact across fashion and culture, while highlighting the creative wonder and exceptional craftsmanship that defines the House. A journey across three centuries, key milestones are illuminated with outstanding examples of artistry drawn from the Swarovski Heritage Collection.
Future History Chamber
Swarovski is a key collaborator with fashion’s true greats who have changed the way the world looks, and who continue to transform and evolve our ideas of beauty, creating the history of our future. In these chambers, outstanding outfits from global talents spanning 129 years of magical creativity, are grouped into a series of 20 visual dialogues. Each is a vision of the future conversing with history united by Swarovski Crystal.
Masters of Light Chamber
Crystal both captures and transforms light, offering a scintillation and sparkle that allows each Swarovski piece to glow with its own inherent luminescence. The Masters of Light Chamber showcases exceptional examples of how this translates into fashion. A highlight is an Haute Couture gown by Gianni Versace from Fall/Winter 1995, which introduced the pure radiance of Swarovski Crystal Mesh to the universe of couture for the very first time.
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 jewelry expertise.
ヨーロッパ初上陸となる展覧会「Masters of Light - From Vienna to Milan」を記念して、開催地にちなんで名付けられたUna Angelic Milanカプセルコレクションを制作しました。このコレクションは、展覧会のポップアップストア、パラッツォ・チッテリオ、その他の一部の店舗でお求めいただけます。
Nella Mathemagical Chamber sono esposti gioielli, oggetti per la casa, per interni e componenti per il mondo fashion che mostrano come i Cristalli Swarovski possano assumere infinite forme e sfaccettature. In parte atelier e in parte laboratorio, questa sala unisce la razionalità della scienza e la magia della creatività. Nucleo centrale di questo spazio una selezione di abiti, espressione della jewelry-couture creata da Giovanna Engelbert, Global Creative Director Swarovski, per il Met Gala 2024, che mostrano la superlativa maestria artigianale di Swarovski.
The Jewelry Box
Title:
"Ho immaginato questa sala come un tributo al cristallo Swarovski. Un omaggio al suo patrimonio nella produzione di cristalli e alla sua più recente storia come marchio di gioielleria, iniziata nel 1997. L'ispirazione arriva dal savoir-faire della nostra artigianalità, dalle geometrie di ogni gioiello, dal prisma cromatico che ogni cristallo irradia quando scopre la luce. Tutto questo ha influenzato il mio processo creativo e il taglio del cristallo ispira le più moderne e iconiche collezioni: Millenia, Lucent, Harmonia, Mesmera. Ognuna cristallizza il nostro DNA" Giovanna Engelbert, Global Creative Director.
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.
