Fabrica: Les Yeux OuvertsEstablished in 1994 on the initiative of Luciano Benetton and Oliviero Toscani, Fabrica is a communications research centre whose range of activities extends from graphic design to cinema, taking in industrial design, writing, interactive media, photography and music on the way.
Housed in a strikingly simple and rigorous building by Tadao Ando, in Treviso, Italy, it is a unique institution, led by an international team, that encourages the creative development of selected young professionals from all over the world, who are granted a one-year scholarship to work on the projects they submit.
Responsible for many media campaigns for major organisations (Reporters Sans Fronti res, World Health Organisation) this private-sector research centre encourages cultural cross-fertilisation and a global consciousness in all its fields of activity.
Conceived by the Centre Pompidou, this exhibition presents a number of the projects developed at Treviso.
Accompanied by a film programme and a series of musical performances, the exhibition offers an opportunity to discover the scope of Fabrica's work, which is redefining the frontiers between art and communications.
Divided into four zones, the exhibition Fabrica:les yeux ouverts will reveal to the public the work of a multidisciplinary research centre whose horizons extend to the whole
