Antonio Sant’Elia

The ADI Design Museum presents an exhibition dedicated to Antonio Sant’Elia, one of the most visionary figures of Futurism, exploring the dialogue between the real city and urban utopia through the language of digital technologies.

Alongside the exhibition at the Pinacoteca Civica di Como, the Milan edition focuses on Sant’Elia’s architectural imagination and its lasting influence on visions of the modern city. On display are fourteen original drawings from the collections of the Pinacoteca Civica di Como (1913–1914), rarely exhibited, accompanied by an immersive multimedia projection created by Terminus Digital Art in collaboration with Epson.

The exhibition reflects on the revolutionary idea of the Città Nuova — a dynamic, polycentric, and interconnected metropolis — anticipating contemporary themes of mobility, infrastructure, and the relationship between technology and architecture. It is a tribute to a visionary thinker who, between Como and Milan, imagined the future and continues to inspire generations of designers.

A project promoted by the Musei Civici di Como and the Accademia di Belle Arti di Brera, in collaboration with the ADI Design Museum, with the support of ASF and Epson.
