Alcantara® has always had many things in common with the world of art and culture: a lifestyle in constant evolution, a high value placed on experimentation and research, anda focus on form. It has a longstanding relationship with the art world in general, just as it does with the world of universities and design institutes, to which Alcantara devotes particular attention by supporting and sponsoring young, emerging designers; the versatility and sensory appeal of a timeless, flexible material are well suited to being reinterpreted and reshaped by the innovative ideas of young creative minds.Starting this year, Alcantara will be bringing its unique style into the world of contemporary art by sponsoring the fifth annual Artissima, a international exhibit that gathers together the youngest emerging talents in the art world; the show is being held in Turin on 11, 12, and 13 November.
