To speak of new millennium tensions is to enunciate a diffuse picture of change and conflict. Change presupposes a change in a state of things; relative to the final decade of the 20th century, the ongoing changes are profound and affect the forms of production and consumption, representation and communication, mediation and participation. Conflict presupposes a confrontation between opposing positions.

In the context of the exhibition Abitare Italia – Icons of Italian Design, curated by Paolo Deganello and Maria Milani, Poltronova was called to represent Italian icons  with Joe, Superonda, Ultrafragola and Passiflora. Spot them all at Palácio das Artes Fundação da Juventude, Porto within December 8th.
