Istituto Marangoni Firenze aggiorna i corsi per l'era post-Covid

Francesca Giulia Tavanti, Programme Leader Arts at Istituto Marangoni Firenze, discusses the institution's response to pandemic challenges. The Covid-19 crisis has expedited existing trends, particularly in digital transformation. The school has revised its curricula for art, fashion design, business, and styling, incorporating a focus on emerging technologies like 3D design, 3D printing, VR, AR, and video mapping, alongside an interdisciplinary approach. Tavanti emphasizes the crucial dialogue between art and fashion, which has historically driven innovation, and highlights the need to reconsider the fast-paced market dynamics, referencing insights from Giorgio Armani, Alessandro Michele, and Jerry Saltz. During the lockdown, the school swiftly transitioned its offline offerings to digital within 48 hours and will blend in-person and online classes for the 2020-21 academic year for students unable to travel to Florence. The aim is to prepare professionals equipped for future challenges by merging art, fashion, digital, and science.
