Art lovers come to Taormina from all over the world for the opening of the Taimeless Art Gallery
On March 23rd Taormina will become the stage for a cultural event of exceptional importance with the inauguration of the Taimeless Art Gallery, housed inside the historic Palazzo Ciampoli, the beating heart of Corso Umberto. This new and refined art gallery promises to further enrich the cultural panorama of Taormina, a city already renowned for its connection with the world of luxury and elegance.
The gala evening, which will begin at 6.30 pm, will see the participation of eminent figures from the world of culture, art and the jet-set, both national and international. The inaugural speech will be held by the renowned patron Antonio Presti, mind and soul of Fiumara d’arte, symbol of how art can regenerate and inspire communities and territories.
The event will be enhanced by the presence of three masters of contemporary art: the Italian painter Lorenzo Chinnici, the Malaysian-French sculptor Michel Anthony, and the Chinese artist Zhu Wei, whose work focuses on urgent and contemporary environmental issues.
These artists, whose work embodies the spirit of Taimeless, will participate personally, offering those present a unique opportunity for meeting and dialogue.
The vernissage will be attended by the three founders of Taimeless, Francesco Chinnici, Antonio D’Aveni and the Real Estate & Investments company Scimandra, represented for the occasion by Stefano Sciacca.
One of the most anticipated attractions of the evening will be the presentation of “Taimeless One“, a jewel of inestimable value (over 4 million euros), inspired by the very concept of the gallery. This creation, signed by the Italian jeweler Francesco Bertè and presented by the scientist Salvatore Magazù, symbolizes the profound connection between art, time and beauty.
The event will also see the participation of Frank Gold, internationally renowned designer, who will exhibit “Melanie”, a work made of Martian stone previously admired in the Royal Hall of the Crossroads of Civilizations Museum in Dubai.
This cultural exchange will be further enriched with the journey of “Taimeless One” to Dubai, in an artistic dialogue that crosses continents and cultures.
The Taimeless art gallery aspires to become a crossroads of creativity and beauty, offering spaces dedicated not only to visual art but also to exclusive jewelry and accessories, museum exhibitions and special projects. With the support of world-renowned curators, the gallery aims to be a point of reference for collectors and enthusiasts, offering high-level artistic consultancy.
