Wear Art. Be the Muse

Venice Biennale

On the occasion of the 61st Venice Biennale, Atelier Gondolina opens its doors to something more than an event: an experience to be lived, remembered, and worn.

In the heart of the most authentic Venice, from May 10th to 15th, fashion and illustration come together to tell unique stories: yours.

For a few days, you can become a muse. Freeze a moment. Transform it into a sign.

Interpreting it all is Marc Ahr, artist and designer known as olympicartist: his essential, refined line captures the soul of the person in front of him, turning emotions and identity into timeless images.

In celebration of Mother’s Day (May 10th), we honour the deepest bonds: mothers and daughters, together, in complicity, mirrors of one another. By purchasing one adult and one child model, you will receive 20% off. And for an additional €20, you can take home something even more special: an illustrated portrait signed by Marc Ahr, an intimate memory of a shared moment.

And if May 10th is not your day, Venice will still be waiting for you: Marc will be in the Atelier until May 15th. With the purchase of a pair of Gondolina shoes, you can be portrayed wearing them — a fragment of you, reinterpreted through his gaze — for a fee of €20.

Because some moments are not just told. They are drawn. They are lived. They remain. 

Atelier Gondolina - Marzaria S. Zulian 737, Venice
