Museums can't open, but their stores can: and Mudec opens its Mudec Design Store


Museums may not open their halls, but no one forbids them from opening their stores: so Milan's Mudec has decided to exceptionally open its Mudec Design Store.

Museums, as is well known, cannot reopen their doors until Jan. 15 because of the Dec. 3 dpcm imposing a lockout of museums, exhibitions, cinemas and theaters. The dpcm, however, does not close the stores, and so Mudec, the Museum of Cultures in Milan, adapts to the situation as much as possible: unable to open its halls, it exceptionally opens its Mudec Design Store to the public on Monday, Dec. 7 and Tuesday, Dec. 8, from 10 a.m. to 7:30 p.m., to comfort the art public with novelties and gift ideas.

The store will thus offer Italian and international books for adults and children, furniture, bijoux, clothing, toys, design items from brands such as Alessi, Seletti, Qeeboo, Guzzini, Bosa, LabSolue, Magis, Enza Fasano, Casarialto, Max Benjamin, Melissa, and countless products made by emerging designers. The Mudec Design Store, which for years has been a point of reference for design enthusiasts, draws inspiration from the permanent collections of the Museo delle Culture and, 24 Ore Cultura management proudly points out, “is conceived as a sort of wunderkammer that collects new and spectacular objects that seem to come out of a fantastic repertoire. Inside the Design Store, tradition and innovation coexist, masters of design and young up-and-comers.”



The Mudec store is located at 56 Via Tortona, in the building that houses the museum. In short, exhibition halls no, stores yes: another of the contradictions of emergency management. But at least one will be able to feel the closeness of the institute.
