The Italian automotive icon will be on public display for the first time in the spring as part of the special exhibition "The Value of Good Design". From February 10 to May 27, 2019, MoMA will be showing exceptional pieces from its collection on the theme of industrial design.
The Nuova 500 was built from 1957
Known in Italy as the Cinquecento and presented in 1957 with the official model name "Nuova 500″, the Fiat 500 is the work of Dante Giacosa. In addition to the Nuova 500, his work also included the first Fiat 500, commonly known by the nickname Topolino. In 2007, the current Fiat 500 in retro design took up this legacy. And with great success. The Fiat 500 won numerous internationally renowned awards, including the title "Car of the Year" and the "Compasso d'Oro" design prize.
