Francesco Faccin's 'Piedistalli' Exhibition Opens in Rome
Designer Francesco Faccin (born 1977 in Milan) presents his collection 'Piedistalli' at Galleria Giustini / Stagetti in Rome from October 16. The exhibition explores the pedestal not as a mere functional support but as a symbolic threshold, an autonomous presence, and an active device in the viewer's gaze. Faccin, named among the 100 most influential personalities by Icon Design, has collaborated with Enzo Mari and Michele De Lucchi, working across industrial design, craftsmanship, self-production, social design, and limited editions for galleries. The show features a selection of objects curated by Faccin, drawing from his private collection and the gallery's holdings, mixing historically significant works with travel objects and primitive artifacts that converge on themes of gaze, balance between function and meaning, and the threshold between presence and absence.
