Courtesy of the artist and Hauser & Wirth Paolo Buffa at Eredi Marelli Visitors can discover a solo retrospective of midcentury designer Paolo Buffa, which includes a walnut two-seater sofa , an armchair , a low table with a sleek brass frame, two entrance chairs and two rare books dating from 1947, when he exhibited at Milan’s Triennale. This booth recontextualises Buffa as a forgotten icon in postwar Italian design. His works (from €5,600) are well worth investing in now.

Here, the concept of “unexpected dialogues” is brought to life by a duet of curators, in conjunction with the galleries. A perfect example is Matt Connors, fresh from his current show at Herald St, who will exhibit his colourful canvases alongside works by the late Italian abstract painter Piero Dorazio.
