八月是一个平静的月份，相比于四月或九月的充满事件的设计事件，所以如果你还没有在接下来的时尚和设计周之前充分利用平静的话，仍然有时间去瞥见一个相对不知名的珐琅作品。艾托瑞·索特萨斯，驻扎在新的维特拉设计博物馆画廊空间在莱茵河畔威尔。另一个展览空间，以1989弗兰克盖里设计的维特拉设计博物馆，新画廊将运行小型展览处理当代或实验主题。珐琅被选中来庆祝开幕式，部分原因在于它在索特萨斯的作品中作为一个利基模块的吸引力，也因为它作为博物馆当前展览的一个巧妙的伴奏——“变焦”。意大利设计和阿尔多和Marirosa Ballo的摄影。Sottsass最初创建珐琅质对象，以打开米兰的IL SSESTTE画廊在1958，在那里他们展示了旁边的艺术家Arnaldo Pomodoro作品。20世纪50年代末，他选择与珐琅等传统材料一起工作，他的设计为25个盘子和37个花瓶提供了相当大的收藏。由福尔维奥和拿破仑法拉利策划，本届展览还展出了37幅相关图纸。当然，有人认为珐琅作品可能不是设计师最职业定义的作品。然而，他们指出了设计师在20世纪50年代后期精雕细琢的创作阶段的一个重要部分，毫无疑问，Sottsass创作方法的基本特征是在色彩丰富的跨材料技术中呈现和正确的。S和原型形状的搪瓷铜吨和花瓶上展出。
