Ordet reopens in Milan's Città Studi with Cosima von Bonin show
Ordet, an innovative art venue established by Edoardo Bonaspetti and Stefano Cernuschi in 2019, has reopened in a renovated 250-square-meter garage at Via Filippino Lippi 4, located in Città Studi, Milan. The redesign was executed by Ballabio & Bava. The grand opening took place on February 19, featuring a solo exhibition by German artist Cosima von Bonin, born in 1962 in Mombasa. Her work, which incorporates humor into sculpture, installation, painting, and textiles, explores themes of alienation and gender while critiquing the seriousness of the art world. Additionally, Lenz Press has launched a bookshop at number 10, offering a range of contemporary art publications. Bonaspetti referred to the relocation as a logical progression, highlighting plans for five exhibitions and various events this year.
