There will be over 40 events
organised at the ‘Villaggio Italia’, set up in Tokyo after the
Amerigo Vespucci’s arrival in the bay of the Japanese capital,
with an account of the excellence of our country: from the
Venice Biennale to La Scala in Milan, the Academy of maestro
Riccardo Muti, to the Italian institute of Design.
Laying out the numbers of the travelling world exhibition,
during the opening ceremony, was the managing director of Difesa
Servizi, Luca Andreoli, the head of the defence ministry’s
in-house company that produces and supports all the phases of
the initiative.
It is a four-floor location measuring 22,000 square metres, more
than the 12,000 of the village in Los Angeles on the first stage
at the beginning of July 2024.
“The Villaggio Italia is recounted in very many ways and all
these definitions actually tell us what it sets out to
represent,” says the manager in front of a packed crowd, in a
hot and sunny Tokyo.
“Today is the second edition after Los Angeles, in this special
location.
“A village set up in this extraordinary building, a cruise
terminal, which is a reformulation of a modality of realisation,
which is a little the characteristic of us Italians to succeed
in adapting ourselves to the places where we go”.
