On view Sunday, February 24 through Sunday, June 9, Passione Italiana chronicles the evolution of the espresso machines and showcases espresso makers used in Italy during the mid-twentieth century, highlighting the influence designers such as Aldo Rossi, Toyo Ito, Richard Sapper and Massimiliano Fuksas have had on classic and contemporary models.
