Scientific and graphic curatorship of four panels dedicated to the host country (in this case Sweden), conceived as an addition to the travelling exhibition "Buone Nuove / Good News – Women Changing Architecture", promoted by the Italian Ministry of Foreign Affairs and International Cooperation in collaboration with the MAXXI Foundation and curated by Pippo Ciorra, Matilde Cassani, Elena Motisi and Elena Tinacci. On the occasion of Stockholm Design Week 2023, the Italian Cultural Institute in Stockholm hosted a stage of the exhibition, which is aimed at highlighting the work of women designers and architects active both in Italy and abroad. Commissioned by the Director of the Institute, Chiara Monterumisi and Claudia Prencipe were entrusted with the research and selection of four prominent female figures from the Swedish architectural scene. The selection focused, for the modern period, on Ingrid Wallberg (1890–1965) and Ingeborg Maria Wærn Bugge (1899–1991), and, for the contemporary period, on Anna Chavepayre and Josefina Nordmark. For the preparation of the panels, original materials were collected from Swedish archives, together with drawings and photographs from the studios of the two contemporary architects. In parallel, four biographical and critical texts were produced to contextualise and enhance the work and legacy of the selected architects.
Curatela scientifica e grafica di quattro pannelli dedicati al paese ospitante (in questo caso la Svezia), concepiti come integrazione alla mostra itinerante "Good News – Women Changing Architecture", promossa dal Ministero degli Affari Esteri e della Cooperazione Internazionale in collaborazione con la Fondazione MAXXI e curata da Pippo Ciorra, Matilde Cassani, Elena Motisi ed Elena Tinacci. In occasione della Stockholm Design Week 2023, l’Istituto Italiano di Cultura di Stoccolma ha ospitato una tappa della mostra, volta a valorizzare il contributo di designer e architette operanti in Italia e all’estero. Su incarico del Direttore dell’Istituto, a Chiara Monterumisi e a Claudia Prencipe è stata affidata la ricerca e la selezione di quattro figure femminili di riferimento nel panorama architettonico svedese. La selezione ha individuato, per il periodo moderno, Ingrid Wallberg (1890–1965) e Ingeborg Maria Wærn Bugge (1899–1991), e, per la contemporaneità, Anna Chavepayre e Josefina Nordmark. Per la realizzazione dei pannelli sono stati raccolti materiali originali presso archivi svedesi, oltre a disegni e fotografie provenienti dagli studi di architettura delle due professioniste attive. Parallelamente, sono stati redatti quattro testi biografici e critici volti a contestualizzare e valorizzare le figure delle architette selezionate.

Abstract
Scientific and graphic curatorship of four panels dedicated to the host country (in this case Sweden), conceived as an addition to the travelling exhibition "Buone Nuove / Good News – Women Changing Architecture", promoted by the Italian Ministry of Foreign Affairs and International Cooperation in collaboration with the MAXXI Foundation and curated by Pippo Ciorra, Matilde Cassani, Elena Motisi and Elena Tinacci. On the occasion of Stockholm Design Week 2023, the Italian Cultural Institute in Stockholm hosted a stage of the exhibition, which is aimed at highlighting the work of women designers and architects active both in Italy and abroad. Commissioned by the Director of the Institute, Chiara Monterumisi and Claudia Prencipe were entrusted with the research and selection of four prominent female figures from the Swedish architectural scene. The selection focused, for the modern period, on Ingrid Wallberg (1890–1965) and Ingeborg Maria Wærn Bugge (1899–1991), and, for the contemporary period, on Anna Chavepayre and Josefina Nordmark. For the preparation of the panels, original materials were collected from Swedish archives, together with drawings and photographs from the studios of the two contemporary architects.
