Roberto Capucci, 91, is a protagonist of Italian fashion and style, admired all over the world and whose creations are still exhibited in major museums. "Seriche armature" is the title of the exhibition, scheduled until January 8, 2023, which celebrates the art of Capucci in a very particular location: the Masone Labyrinth by Franco Maria Ricci, in Fontanellato, in the province of Parma; an elegant maze, the largest in the world, spread over eight hectares of land. The exhibition was created by the Roberto Capucci Foundation and the Franco Maria Ricci Foundation, with the collaboration of Sylvia Ferino. Thirty years ago, in 1993, the publishing house of Franco Maria Ricci dedicated to Capucci a volume of the series "Luxe, calme et volupté", a series that explored the world of fashion through the works of the most fascinating designers of the twentieth century. The exhibition celebrates Capucci's career in several aspects, combining his creations, often similar to sculptures, with the works of art of the collection, thus creating unexpected dialogues and new suggestions. On the occasion comes the publishing of a new volume for Fmr Editions dedicated to Capucci.
