Pirelli Foundation Educational Creative Courses
What is an archive? How do you make a tyre? How do you make an advertisement? What is corporate cinema? How did they illustrate stories back in 1400?
These are just some of the questions that will find answers in the free creative course devised by the Pirelli Foundation for the 2013-2014 school year for primary school children and lower- and upper-secondary school children.
The educational department of the Pirelli Foundation has set up the “Pirelli Foundation Educational” programme, the main purpose of which is to introduce young people to the world of production and work. The proposed activities cover a variety of subjects, from the history and technology of tyres to graphics and advertising, urban transformation, and corporate cinema, starting from the wealth of historical and documentary evidence preserved in the Pirelli Historical Archive.
The creative courses each last about 3 hours and are divided into a theoretical part, which involves the use of multimedia instruments, and a more specifically workshop section. Some of the courses will also include a visit to the Pirelli Historical Archive, to the fifteenth-century Villa della Bicocca degli Arcimboldi and to the R&D laboratories in the Pirelli area.
Participants can take part in the Foundation’s activities every day from Monday to Friday, from 9 a.m. to 5 p.m., depending on the requirements of each individual school.
You can download the creative courses from the “Related Content” page.

What is new this year is the close collaboration with HangarBicocca, the space devoted to the production and display of contemporary art, of which Pirelli is a founding partner and promoter. From the HangarBicocca website you can download the HB School programme and all the information you need in order to take part.
