Fondazione Ferragamo and Museo Salvatore Ferragamo have announced its latest exhibition, which explores the complex relationship between art and fashion. Across Art and Fashion Exhibition draws on the life story of Salvatore Ferragamo, whose fascination with twentieth century avant-garde art movement led him to find inspiration in the world of art and collaborate with many of the artists of his time. This project presents case histories in an analysis of the ways in which these two worlds interact through contamination, overlapping and collaboration. The pieces on display include a Salvatore Ferragamo pump inspired by the work of American artist Kenneth Noland, a dress designed by Elsa Schiaparelli in the Thirties in collaboration with Salvador Dali, and a Yves Saint Laurent dress inspired by the paintings of Piet Mondrian. The exhibition runs from May 18, 2016, until April 7, 2017.
