Ma accanto al design, come da tradizione, non mancheranno l’archeologia, i gioielli, dipinti, sculture e fumetti, un ventaglio di opere che ripercorrono oltre quattro millenni di storia dell’arte, con un orizzonte geografico che abbraccia tutti i continenti. L’arte africana è storicamente una delle specializzazioni più attese della manifestazione e quest’anno sarà accompagnata da quella tribale e precolombiana, sempre più affermate.
