Gianluigi Ricuperati, writer and essayist, and Dean of Domus Academy, has already published several books, and is a regular contributor to Domus Magazine, Repubblica, Il sole 24 ore, among other publications. He has been a curator for programs of contemporary art museums in Italy, and has co-curated many cultural events over the years.

“I highly value Domus Academy’s participation in the Fashion Forward event because I think that Dubai is a hub not only for commerce and exchanges, but also, and especially, for ideas. And ideas are the essential element of our research and commitment to the progress of students.

This kind of symposium is a crucial step towards an even more integrated and international laboratory for knowledge.”— Gianluigi Ricuperati
