The journey through the exhibition starts at the ground floor where the visitor comes into contact with the Gio Ponti universe. Richard Ginori gives life to the iconic designs created by the Master thanks to innovative video mapping on the walls and ceilings of the space.
It is an immersive voyage with the unmistakeable illusionistic effect of the Prospettica decoration, with the magical elements of the Witch’s Hand, to the figures that characterise the decoration of the Archaeological Stroll, to the women resting on clouds that decorate the Women on Clouds Vase and Architecture, to the lively Déco of the feminine forms on My Women.
