Firenze Déco: Atmosfere degli anni Venti

The exhibition highlights collaborations, ateliers and workshops that helped define a style extending beyond local boundaries: the exhibition explores links with French culture, the motifs of Commedia dell’Arte masks, the presence of Florentine artists at the Monza Biennales, the influence of Futurism on visual communication in the 1920s, and the city’s fashion scene, shaped by the visions of Ferragamo and Thayaht.

Through objects, clothing, furnishings, posters and jewellery, visitors retrace a decade that left a lasting mark on Florence’s modern identity, demonstrating how the city managed to combine artisanal tradition with an innovative spirit.

Exhibition hours: from 9.00 am to 7.00 pm. Last admission: 6.00 pm. Closed on Wednesdays.
