Artistic director of the Missoni Archive, Luca Missoni (born 1956) has always cultivated a great passion for the moon. His interest in this celestial body originated in childhood when he began to explore the surface with a small telescope, back in the 1960s when space programs made the first lunar explorations possible. Subsequently, this passion led him to photograph the ever-changing appearance of the moon in a rigorous, almost scientific fashion, while, over the years, also pursuing his own artistic project.
