Florence Déco. Atmospheres of the 1920s

From April 2 to August 25, 2026, Palazzo Medici Riccardi in Florence will host Firenze Déco. Atmospheres of the 1920s, an exhibition that reveals to the general public the central role played by the city in the spread of Art Deco in Italy and Europe.

Curated by Lucia Mannini, the exhibition recounts a decade of extraordinary creative ferment, in which Florence established itself as a refined laboratory of applied arts, fashion, design, theater, and decorative arts.

Ceramics, glassware, furnishings, jewelry, fabrics, clothing, posters, and stage costumes reconstruct the cultural climate of the 1920s, bringing together artists and manufacturers who were able to renew tradition with an eye toward the avant-garde and international taste.
