Homo Faber 2024
Organised by the Michelangelo Foundation for Creativity and Craftsmanship and its partners, Homo Faber 2024 invites visitors to explore the essential role handmade objects play in our daily lives. Through the theme The Journey of Life, devised by the Foundation’s Vice-Chair, Hanneli Rupert, and interpreted by Art Directors Luca Guadagnino and Nicolò Rosmarini, the exhibition showcases exquisite objects by artisans from all over the world, revealing how craftsmanship is woven into the fabric of our lives. The bespoke backgammon set gifted from grandfather to grandchild, the handcrafted accessories that evoke memories of a woman’s round-the-world trip, the crystal glasses used to toast a couple’s wedding day: it’s objects like these that help us to create precious and meaningful moments.
