This paper presents the architecture exhibition ‘The Modern Movement in Italy: Architecture and Design’ as a catalyst for diverse interests embedded within the processes of the transatlantic exchange of cultural and disciplinary knowledge between Italy and the United States in the second half of the 20th century. The study outlines the contents, the construction, and the critical fortune of the event, a traveling exhibition curated in 1953 by Ada Louise Huxtable for the International Program of the New York Museum of Modern Art after a Fulbright scholarship period in Italy. The exhibit is interpreted as a paradigm to look at the complexity and multidirectional stratification that characterizes the reception of Italian design culture in postwar America. Keywords: knowledge transfer; vectors and instruments of the transatlantic transfer; traveling architecture exhibitions
Keywords: knowledge transfer; vettori e strumenti dello scambio transatlantico; mostre di architettura itineranti
