Anh Duong, Fashion Artist
At the heart of Fatto a Mano exhibit room are paintings by Anh Duong, a Franco-American painter of Spanish and Vietnamese descent, long revered as a muse by designers worldwide.
Displayed at the Insitute of Contemporary Art, Miami, Duong’s artworks, created between 2012 and 2024, portray the artist adorned in iconic garments synonymous with the brand, celebrating beauty and femininity in all its forms.
Noteworthy among the collection is a large canvas featuring Domenico Dolce and Stefano Gabbana at work on a theatrical stage, surrounded by a diverse cast of characters showcasing the brand’s exquisite creations.
Capelletti Antichità
The antique frames that embellish the works of Anh Duong come from the prestigious archive of the Capelletti Gallery. Opened by Mario Capelletti in 1961 in Meda, and currently managed by architect Fabio Capelletti, this prestigious art space specialises in Italian and European golden furnishings from the eighteenth to the nineteenth centuries, and is also a reference point in the sector of high-level antique artistic rarities.
A fascinating blend of art, fashion and craft tradition comes to life in the refined words of Anh Duong and Fabio Cappelletti, offering a unique perspective on these captivating worlds.
