Stefano Boeri, former Domus director, architect and urban planner, is the new president of the La Triennale Foundation in Milan and will be in charge until 2022. He has been unanimously appointed president of the Foundation's board administration. Boeri has a long professional career, which includes the direction of Domus from 2004 to 2007, and also political role such as Councilor for Culture of the Municipality of Milan in the years 2011-2013.  He is part of the scientific committee of the Uffizi Gallery in Florence together with Davide Gasparotto, is Senior Curator at the J. Paul Getty Museum Painting Department with Carl Brandon Strehlke, and Curator Emeritus at the Phiadelphia Museum of Art. He manages the Future City Lab of Tongji University in Shanghai, a postdoctoral research program which anticipates the mutation of the planetary metropolis. Boeri has always paid attention to nature as an element of architecture, conveyed in the conception of the “Bosco Verticale” (Vertical Forest), the first prototype of a sustainable residential building with facades covered with trees and plants, a model of metropolitan reforestation that conceives vegetation as an essential element of architecture. Bosco Verticale receives numerous international awards, such as the International Highrise Award in 2014 and the Best Tall Building Worldwide, award as the most beautiful skyscraper in the world, awarded by CTBUH in 2015.
