Underground Florence

We’re excited to unveil the latest issue of Blending Magazine, dedicated to a side of Florence you won’t find in the tourist guides - welcome to Underground Florence! Known worldwide as the cradle of the Renaissance, Florence is also a city with a fiercely independent spirit and a rich undercurrent of artistic rebellion. In the 19th century, legendary literary cafés like Giubbe Rosse pulsed with the energy of poets, writers, and visionaries exchanging radical ideas. Fast forward to the 20th century, and Florence lit the fuse for avant-garde movements - from the explosive rise of Futurism and the emotional force of the Transavantgarde to experimental theater led by boundary-breaking figures like Carmelo Bene and the pioneering Krypton Theater. In the 1970s and '80s, Florence didn’t just observe cultural shifts - it led them. The city became a hotbed for New Wave music and radical architecture, leaving a bold mark on Italy’s creative landscape. Today, Florence continues to reinvent itself - blending deep-rooted tradition with cutting-edge innovation, and proving that its artistic heartbeat is as strong as ever. So dive into this immersive journey through the hidden layers of our city - and discover a Florence you’ve never seen before. Thank you for being part of the Blending Magazine community. Enjoy the Spring 2025 issue - it's going to be unforgettable!
