A ritroso (Polittico per Zegna)

Exhibition Description
Art in Global Stores is a special line of action based on a decentralized collection concept. It consists in a series of commissions for works by artists of international standing, inspired by the Zegna Group spirit and philosophy and specifically conceived to be housed in Ermenegildo Zegna stores around the world. Starting in 2013, Art in Global Stores introduced a new series of commissions for permanent works by Italian artists, who are invited to interact with the company’s history, places, philosophy and spirit. Each installation is presented along with a video interview that illustrates the artist’s experience and the path that led to the conception and realization of the work. This particular line of commissions, which transforms the Ermenegildo Zegna Stores into prestigious showcases for the finest Italian art, is entrusted to the curation of Cecilia Canziani and Simone Menegoi.
