Franco Mazzucchelli's inflatable PVC works at Gaggenau HUB in Milan
Cramum, a non-profit art support project in Italy, presents eight transparent PVC inflatables by Franco Mazzucchelli (born 1939 in Milan) at Gaggenau HUB, a hybrid cultural space between showroom and gallery in Milan. These works are the latest from his Bieca Decorazione series, designed as frame-sized inflatables that can be touched, manipulated, hung, or placed on surfaces—one on the kitchen counter, others on tables and shelves. They feature reflective surfaces that do not allow mirroring and have an "autograph" valve. The installation blurs boundaries between domestic sculpture, inflatable mat, and spatial concept, embodying a curatorial approach centered on play, research, and integration with Gaggenau's design elements.
