Alongside the comprehensive exhibition Arts & Food, curated by Germano Celant, which has invaded all the spaces of the Triennale di Milano, the café of the historic building features an extraordinary collection of salt and pepper shakers under the curatorship of Silvana Annicchiarico. It is the collection of Paola Trifirò Siniramed, a Milan lawyer esteemed in her profession, but also passionate about cooking and an indomitable collector. Thanks to the partnership with the great Luigi Veronelli, she started a collection of cookbooks that boasts 4,000 volumes. In parallel Paola has dedicated time to collecting strange and bizarre salt and pepper shakers from around the world. The unusual show reveals how, over time, salt and pepper shakers have been a good excuse for “flights of fancy”.

The Moodboarders is a glance into the design world, which, in all of its facets, captures the extraordinary even within the routine. It is a measure of the times. It is an antenna sensitive enough to pick-up on budding trends, emerging talents and neglected aesthetics. Instead of essays, we use brief tales to tune into the rhythm of our world. We travelled for a year without stopping, and seeing as the memory of this journey has not faded, we have chosen to edit a printed copy. We eliminated anything episodic, ephemeral or fading, maintaining a variety of articles that flow, without losing the element of surprise, the events caught taking place, and the creations having just bloomed.
