NABA x Canali: An Artistic Collaboration
A highlight of the celebration was the exclusive art exhibition, a collaboration between Canali and NABA, Nuova Accademia di Belle Arti. NABA students created two unique artistic interpretations: sculptural installations using anniversary fabrics and collection items, and a digital AI-generated video narrative titled "Canali Horizons: A Journey from Heritage to Tomorrow." These works explored Canali's past, present, and future, intertwining the brand's tradition with futuristic visions.

The sculptural installations, inspired by themes of dwelling, temporality, and landscape, reimagined traditional nomadic dwellings using Canali fabrics. These dismantlable and reassemblable sculptures acted as vessels of visual memory, threading the past through the present and into the future. The AI-generated video narrative, on the other hand, took viewers on a journey from Canali's origins in Brianza to a visionary future where urban and natural environments harmoniously intertwine.
