The Milan Biennial was the first edition of the Milan Biennial.[1] This, and the 3 subsequent biennials, were organised by the Istituto Superiore per le Industrie Artistiche (ISIA) to provide an arts vision for the new Kingdom of Italy.[1] It was called the International Exhibition of Decorative Arts.[1] Exhibitions included a Futurist Hall by Fortunato Depero.[2]

It was held in Monza at the Royal Villa of Monza,[1][3] and ran from 19 May 1923 to 31 October 1923.[2]

After 4 biennials the timing was changed to every three years to form the Milan Triennials.[1]
