Lisboa Fashion Week’s FAST TALKS returns to MUDE – Museu do Design with a programme focused on the social and environmental impact of the contemporary fashion industry.

Created in collaboration with the Italian Embassy in Portugal as part of Italian Design Day, the event is divided into three moments: a workshop with Matteo Ward, the talks, hosted by Rui Maria Pêgo and preceded by welcoming remarks from Bárbara Coutinho, Director of MUDE, Eduarda Abbondanza, President of the ModaLisboa Association, and Claudio Miscia, Italian Ambassador to Lisbon,  and the screening of a documentary film, aimed at reflecting on strategies for real and meaningful change.

DIÁLOGOS

Partner

Three conversations between Artists and Fashion Designers, capitalising on their relevance to contemporary thinking. The term Diálogos (Dialogues) presupposes an automatic conversational empathy between the creatives, and all the sessions, each 30 minutes long, aim to extend this fluidity of communication to the audience, in moments of discussion about artistic practices, conceptual splits and intersections, and the impact of materiality on the construction of new cultural narratives. At the heart of each dialogue is the thought and process of creation, the points of departure that art and fashion share for conception, interpretation of reality, experimentation and investigation of unexplored paths that lead to the production of the new, or simply a different vision of the other and of today.
