From June 4th to 9th, the Milan Film Festival returns as a brand-new festival dedicated to showcasing the captivating world of cinema. This vibrant event brings together the four pillars that have shaped Milan's thriving arts scene over the years: the Milan Film Festival, FeST – the Television Festival, and the creative output of Cinemino and Perimetro. The festival is held in cinemas, historic theaters, squares, and bustling streets throughout the city. It will present a diverse program including film screenings, an international competition, exclusive premieres, and in-depth studies of television and cinematography, offering a comprehensive and insightful look at the past and present of film.

From May 16, 2025, Room 1 of the Pinacoteca di Brera will be transformed to host “Beauty and the Ideal,” an unmissable exhibition dedicated to Antonio Canova. Twelve plaster busts restored by Banca Ifis, including the marble Vestal and enameled miniatures from the Sommariva collection, offer a unique journey into Neoclassicism, the founding heart of the Milanese museum.

This exhibition features 99 exquisite enamel miniatures commissioned by Count Giovanni Battista Somariva, a patron and collector of Neoclassical art. This "mobile gallery," created between 1810 and 1825, recreates his collection of masterpieces, transforming art into an elegant tool for personal expression.

To celebrate Giorgio Armani's 50-year creative journey, the Brera Museum is hosting its first-ever exhibition dedicated to the artist's stylistic evolution, showcasing a carefully selected collection of garments in its renowned galleries.

This exhibition comprises a main exhibition and three "exhibition chapters," held in three major museums across Milan, and is an interdisciplinary project created specifically for the city. The "Metaphysics/Metaphysical Themes" project, curated by Vincenzo Trione, brings together metaphysical masters and their international "successors" and "students" in the 20th and 21st centuries. The exhibition at the Museum of the 20th Century, exploring the relationship between metaphysics and Milan, is part of Vincenzo Trione's curated exhibition project, held concurrently with the main exhibition "Metaphysics/Metaphysical Themes" at the Royal Palace of Milan. The public will be able to appreciate 50 selected works, including sketches, models, costumes, archival materials, and photographs, showcasing the work of De Chirico, Savinho, and Carla in Milan, the capital of Lombardy, and their collaborations with some of Milan's most important art and cultural institutions. Exhibits include set and costume sketches they created for La Scala in the 1940s and 50s, as well as period photographs and preparatory drawings for their design of "Bagni Misteriosi" for the Milan Triennale. The exhibition concludes with Mimmo Paladino's poetic reinterpretation of the relationship between the city and art movements, a result of his imaginative dialogue with Alberto Savinio's reflections on Milan in his novel *Ascolto il tuo cuore, città* (Listen to Your Heart, City). Ten paintings, arranged in sequence, create an involuntary neo-realist cinematic atmosphere that complements the original novel. This project, spearheaded by the Italian Ministry of Culture and the Milan City Government, is a collaborative production of the Royal Palace of Milan, the Museum of the 20th Century, the Brera Gallery, the National Museum of Modern and Contemporary Art of Italy, and the Italian Art Museum, and published by Electa. It is part of the cultural program for the 2026 Milan-Cortina Winter Olympics. The entire catalogue and publications for the Metafisica/Metafisiche project are published by Electa, aiming to rediscover the city's legacy that transcends transience.
