Gallery
Movimento Gallery is a contemporary design gallery searching for the places where art and design co-exist; where an object has the ability to evoke emotion, provoke thought or challenge preconceptions.

Moreno Vannini was born in Florence (Italy) in 1985. Lives and works in Milan.
He attended the ISIA University where he graduated with full marks in 2009. He lived and worked in Florence, London, Tokyo, San Francisco and Milan, bringing all his international background in his projects.
After graduating he moved in Tokyo to join Nendo. During 2014 moved back to Italy as representative of Nendo Milan branch office, where soon became the Design Director.
In 2017 begins a new challenge in San Francisco, joining the award winning design company Fuseproject, lead by Yves Behar. Early 2019 decided to go back to his roots, with Oki Sato as mentor, moving back in Milan where he led the Nendo Milan branch office, until 2024.
2025 Moreno Vannini founds his studio.
This bench plays with perception, blurring the boundaries between hardness and softness. The solid travertine, sculpted with rounded edges, gentle curves, and two subtle rises, takes on the appearance of something worn smooth by time and touch. Neither rigid nor yielding, it lingers in an in between state, evoking a sensation of softness that stone should not possess, yet here, almost does.
Following on from the launch of the Marks of Existence collection at PAD London in 2024, Movimento Gallery, in collaboration with Spazio Vento, brought the collection to Milan for Milan Art + Design Week 2025.
Our exhibition presents a curated selection of unique pieces by exceptional artists from around the world, each united by a shared exploration of innovative materials. These works, distinct in style and function, serve as powerful expressions of creativity and reflections of diverse cultural narratives.

Marks of existence is a collection of unique objects designed to highlight the allure of natural materials; the impossibly complex weaves of texture, colour and forms that, despite our ever-expanding capabilities, are still completely unattainable and irreproducible.
Our show marks the launch of a series of unique pieces conceived by a global selection of exceptional artists represented by our gallery. United by common materials, each piece, distinct in style, approach and function becomes both an expression of creativity and a reflection of culture.
