La Società delle Api is pleased to announce that on Saturday, 13 December 2025 at 7:00 PM, the MUCIV–Museum of Civilizations inaugurates the Libreria delle Api, a nomadic bibliographic device that embodies the museum’s ongoing renewal through interdisciplinary and multispecies approaches.
The Libreria delle Api, with its first two components Polline 1 and Polline 2, is a mobile and ever-evolving library designed by the interdisciplinary studio 2050+ and commissioned by MUCIV–Museum of Civilizations in Rome, in collaboration with NERO Editions, and produced thanks to the support of Silvia Fiorucci and La Società delle Api.
Following its initial activation by La Società delle Api at Palazzo Lezze Michiel during the 19th International Architecture Exhibition – La Biennale di Venezia, the Libreria delle Api now finds its permanent home at MUCIV, where it will enter into direct dialogue with the museum’s collections (starting with the Italian Folk Arts and Traditions Collections), hosting an in-progress selection of books curated by NERO Editions.
