La Fabbrica del Vapore
La Fabbrica del Vapore is a cultural centre in Milan, where a former industrial complex now hosts contemporary art and creative work. Red-brick vaults and large windows preserve the atmosphere of a site once used to produce locomotives and railway equipment.
Modern design sits within that industrial framework, creating spaces for avant-garde exhibitions, workshops and performances. The Cathedral, a former workshop, opens into a grand exhibition hall with a broad floor and towering ceilings for large installations.
Past highlights include The Pink Floyd Exhibition – Their Mortal Remains and Frida Kahlo – Il Caos Dentro, a multimedia exploration of the Mexican painter’s life and art.
