Minotti Firenze by Belvedere unveils a new collaboration with the renowned Tornabuoni Arte gallery. This partnership marks the beginning of a cultural initiative called "Spotlight on Art & Design”, which will feature a series of installations in the Piazza degli Strozzi exhibit spaces. The layout offers an inspirational variety of new pieces from the 2024 collection, alongside with bestsellers and contemporary masterpieces by prominent artists from the early 20th century to today. A unique opportunity to closely explore the new collection, enriched by a curated selection of artworks, and presented in a captivating setting that seamlessly blends the brand's contemporary and timeless vision with the gallery's discerning spirit of discovery. The current display includes a selection of some twenty works by major Italian artists, lent and selected for the occasion by the Tornabuoni Arte gallery, such as Alberto Biasi, Agostino Bonalumi, Giorgio de Chirico, Lucio Fontana, Omar Galliani, Giuseppe Gallo, Franco Ionda, Francesca Pasquali, Carlo Rea, Mario Schifano, Mimmo Rotella, and Paolo Scheggi.

The "Spotlight on Art & Design” project was inaugurated to coincide with the 33rd edition of the Biennale Internazionale dell’Antiquariato di Firenze (BIAF), which Minotti supported as Official Sponsor. On this occasion, the majestic Salone del Trono, located on the main floor of Palazzo Corsini, home of the Biennale, hosted two spacious lounges showcasing the Yves Sofà seating systems designed by Hannes Peer, accompanied by the Vivienne armchairs by GamFratesi, and many coffee tables. An invitation to explore the connections between art, design and beauty against a breathtaking architectural backdrop featuring ceiling frescoes, columns, ancient statues, and busts by various 18th-century sculptors.
