About the Manufacturer: Fabrica, Benetton's communication research centre, was set up in 1994. The fruit of the Group's cultural legacy is based in Treviso, Italy, in a complex restored and enlarged by Tadao Ando. Fabrica is not a school, advertising agency, or university. It is an applied creativity laboratory, a talent incubator, a studio of sorts in which young, modern artists come from all over the world to develop innovative projects and explore new directions in myriad avenues of communication, from design, music and film to photography, publishing and the Internet. These artist-experimenters are accompanied along their research path by leading figures in art and communication, blurring the boundaries of culture and language and transgressing the traditional borders between a diverse range of communication mediums. Fabrica's aim is to grasp the future by giving innovative exposure to cultural or scientific projects which open a window onto tomorrow's world.
