Celebrating Milan’s Artistic Heritage: Gucci Prospettive 1 – Milano Ancora Publication

Gucci Prospettive, a series of publications accompanying Gucci's fashion collections, celebrates this fusion. In its inaugural chapter, Gucci Prospettive n.1: Milano Ancora, the brand reaffirms its commitment to bridging artistic expression and fashion.

Steering this artistic journey is Stefano Collicelli Cagol, a visionary with a PhD and the director of the Luigi Pecci Center for Contemporary Art in Prato. Cagol, formerly the curator of the Rome Quadriennale from 2018 to 2021, infuses life into Gucci Prospettive n.1: Milano Ancora—a nod to Milan's history and artistic significance.

Within the pages of this exquisite volume unfolds a profound tribute to Milan. Here, the realms of art, literature, music, cinema, fashion, and history converge, weaving a tapestry of cultural richness from the post-war era to the present day. Milano Ancora shares fragmented tales of the city's enduring cultural and artistic legacy.
