theclassroom#1 – Adelita Husni-Bey

The classroom is an art and education center that has been operating on a nomadic basis since 2016. We believe that “every man is a school” and we work on alternative educational models encouraging individual production of methodologies and narratives in Arts histories. the classroom inaugurated its program in April 2016 with a class run by Adelita Husni-Bey (Italy and Lybia, 1985, lives and works in New York) hosted in a former school building which from 1972 to 2011 housed one of the Children’s Homes – Montessori School for children in Milan. The project developed with a course seminar, an artist’s lecture and a public exhibition was conceived and directed by the artist in collaboration with Bocconi University and the Milan Triennale.
