Highlights
Max Mara Bridal Collection 2012
The 2012 Collection, from romantic allure and elegant minimalism, is dedicated to the modern and dynamic woman, who has no desire to lose hours for fittings in an atelier.
Tones offer a range of whites, from milk-white to ivory, with touches of transparent pastels in a make-up palette.
Bright lights, big city!
Colourful, eclectic, glamour: Persona chose New York City to shoot the new 2012 Spring Summer collection.
The bright colours of the old cars from the Fifties get along with the nuance explosion of the Sport collection. The smell of coffee and ink of the typewriters in the open spaces from the City, reminds us of the Contemporary working lady.
The elegance of the Party collection lives in the bright lights of the rooftops.
It's time for a fresh start with Persona!

Huma Bhabha. Players
12 February - 15 April 2012
In both the six sculptures from the mid-1990s, and the six new drawings created for the exhibition Players, Huma Bhabha reinvents the human head, deconstructing and reconstructing an archetype in which she gathers and transforms various art-historical typologies. Bhabha seeks inspiration from very different sources, tribal art, science-fiction, combining them to arrive at a new kind of figuration and constructing the human face as a site in which all the possibilities of the expressive can be played out.
Kaarina Kaikkonen. Are We Still Going On?
26 February - 15 April 2012
Conceived specifically for the former factory of Max Mara fashion company, now housing the Maramotti Collection, the large installation Are We Still Going On? by Kaarina Kaikkonen follows and accompanies the compositional structure of the building, an interesting example of brutalist and organicist architecture from the 1950’s. The old entrance to the factory - where the artwork is realized - is ideally divided into two areas; the horizontal beams in reinforced concrete lining the pillars, not only provide the space with an architectural rhythm, but also become part of the artist’s work.
Andrea Büttner. The Poverty of Riches
13 November 2011 – 29 April 2012
Following its London showing, the Collezione Maramotti presents the latest project by artist Andrea Büttner, the third recipient of the Max Mara Art Prize for Women in collaboration with London’s Whitechapel Gallery. The works produced for the show highlight all the key concerns of Büttner’s artistic research, which is aimed at exploring the interconnections between religion and art and the affinities between religious communities and the art world. The artist is interested in the concept of poverty as much from an aesthetic as from a spiritual point of view; not only as it relates to monastic movements, but also to artistic movements, in particular Arte Povera.
Alessandro Pessoli. Fiamma pilota le ombre seguono
30 October 2011 – 29 January 2012
Three large canvases by Alessandro Pessoli, a miscellany of classic pictorial compositions and themes, take as their starting point the complex subject of the Crucifixion, the matrix, the “pilot light” for the new works produced for this exhibition. Pessoli’s work comes together through a process of linguistic construction/deconstruction, which is both symbolic and physical and in which the erased, covered, leftover parts often constitute the painting’s fundamental structure: a quest for an interior truth, which reveals itself in the vitality of the image and the painting that the artist is continually striving to achieve.
