I lay down on one of those soft, round seats dotting the post-industrial yard of Pirelli Hangar Bicocca, a dynamic cultural centre for contemporary art in the northern outskirts of Milan.
This building, originally used for manufacturing trains, comprises several large halls where site-specific installations are shown, these experimental and thought-provoking works that makes Pirelli Hangar Bicocca one of the best contemporary art sites in Italy.
It goes without saying that I turned the book launch in Milan into a whole weekend of explorations!
My day in Milan begun at the hipster Pave Café: sat on a yellow chair, I checked my day’s plan while sipping a creamy cappuccino; the plan included a brand new museum located in a res-industrial district, the monumental cemetery and some outer areas off the beaten path.
