Tribute

Architecture rarely emerges in isolation. The exhibition Tribute. Architecture as a Form of Dialogue by the Florentine firm Archea Associati / Marco Casamonti takes this as its starting point: Eleven international projects—including the Antinori nel Chianti Classico winery nestled in the Tuscan hills, the Air Albania Stadium in Tirana, and the spectacular Kiss Bridge in Phú Quốc, Vietnam—are presented not from the perspective of the architectural firm, but from that of the client. Curated by Luca Molinari Studio, the exhibition at Aedes places them at the center—as equal partners in the design process who formulate requirements, help shape decisions, and contribute to the projects’ content.

The exhibition combines two levels of presentation: a film installation featuring video interviews recorded in Europe and Asia and produced with the support of Pietro Savorelli e Associati, as well as models of the featured projects, which are positioned centrally in the space. Both elements are directly related to one another: the models anchor the cinematic narratives in the built object and enable diverse, complementary approaches to the design process.

Opening: June 15, 2026, 6:30 p.m.

Speakers: Hans-Jürgen Commerell & Mathias Schnell, Luca Molinari, Laura Andreini & Marco Casamonti
