It will take place in the area once renowned for the fair that has been moved quite recently to another part of the city and it is supposed to be ready within Spring 2011.

At the press conference the main guest was Daniel Libeskind the polish architect already responsible, together with Zaha Hadid and Arata Isozaki of the 3 new towers of Milan, called City Life. Daniel Libeskind is the hand behind tower C, shaped as half of a sphere. The new area was born in 2007 and should be complete in 2014. Part of the project includes also this brand new museum of Contemporary Arts designed by Mr. Libesking realized especially and exclusively for Milan, “the best city for architecture”.

The structure is inspired by Leonardo Da Vinci and his theory of balance and will bound together a circle and a square but incorporating modern elements such as a suspended garden and thermal baths.

At the press conference there were also Letizia Moratti, major of Milan, and Vittorio Sgarbi, responsible of cultural events for the city of Milan, who has been already promoting some of the most shocking art exhibitions Milan has ever had.

They all agreed saying this is an important step for the internationalization of the city and will finally focus the attention on contemporary art, a secret passion Milan has been growing for years, thanks to private collectors and temporary exhibitions.

We will finally have a brand new museum dedicated exclusively to contemporary art that will help Milan to shine within the best cities in Europe for art of any kind. Everybody was excited and extremely satisfied, now we only have to wait until the official opening!
