Produced and curated by the Museo Ginori and the Museo Poldi Pezzoli, the exhibition “Oro bianco. Tre secoli di porcellane Ginori” scheduled in Milan from October 25, 2023, to February 19, 2024, tells the story of the Manifattura di Doccia, from Carlo Ginori to Gio Ponti.
Sixty works created between the 18th and 20th centuries, coming from Italian and European museums and private collections, are the protagonists of the exhibition Oro bianco. Tre secoli di porcellane Ginori, scheduled at the Museo Poldi Pezzoli in Milan from October 25, 2023, to February 19, 2024.
Produced by Museo Poldi Pezzoli and Museo Ginori, the exhibition is curated by Federica Manoli, Oliva Rucellai, and Rita Balleri, who envisioned it as a journey through time marked by absolute masterpieces such as the monumental Venere de’ Medici (circa 1747) from the Museo Ginori, by refined pairings of porcelain sculptures exhibited together for the first time with their respective bronze archetypes, by the large vases made for the Universal Expositions, and by the creations of Gio Ponti, among which are the extraordinary Ciste made for Fernanda and Ugo Ojetti, now owned by Museo Poldi Pezzoli.
Throughout the duration of the exhibition, numerous side activities will be organized, including workshops for families, in-depth lectures, and a series of meetings related to the theme of the “culture of the table.”
