Have you ever imagined yourself swimming in a swimming pool full of colourful sprinkles? And what about walking along thousands of huge ice-creams? Le Banana makes your dreams come true.
We flew to Miami to be part of the pre-opening of the Museum of Ice Cream, a great traveling installation that arrived in Florida for the first time as part of Art Basel, the artistic fair that has already become a classic of the city.
The Museum of Ice Cream is, more than an exhibition, a great funfair of colours and flavors in which grown-ups become kids and kids fully enjoy a magical world.
Huge Ice Cream swings, pink, yellow, orange and red rooms full of Ice Cream cones, Ice Cream-like sculptures, and colourful paintings make this pop-up exhibition a paradise for those who love sweets and ice creams.
The Museum of Ice Cream is a performatic space perfect for tasting, smelling, touching and taking photos of all kinds of ice creams.
In the exhibition, the observer has an active role not only at the shops that offer hundreds of flavours and textures but also at the labs that show the history of this dessert and, above all, at the photo booths: the living fantasy of any Instagramer.
If you go to Miami you cant miss this colourful and magical island. You wont regret it.
When? From December 13th to January 22nd.
