MAXXI and Bulgari together for young contemporary art.
Giulia Cenci (Cortona, 1988, lives and works between Amsterdam and Tuscany), Tomaso De Luca (Verona, 1988, lives and works in Berlin) and Renato Leotta (Torino, 1982, lives and works in Acireale) are the three finalists of the second edition of MAXXI BVLGARI PRIZE, the project that unites MAXXI and Bvlgari, an icon of Italian excellence for 130 years, to support and promote young artists.
The three finalists were chosen by an international jury consisting of Hou Hanru (Artistic Director of MAXXI), Bartolomeo Pietromarchi (Director of MAXXI Arte), Manuel Borja-Villel (Director of the Reina Sofa Museum, Madrid) and Emma Lavigne (President of the Palais de Tokyo).
Their works were specially created for the Prize and will be exhibited at MAXXI from October 2020. The winning work, which will be chosen by the jury in April 2021, will become part of the museum’s collection.
