2019

The Studio Neri Torrigiani and Weber Shandwick organized “First Commissions”, a project in collaboration with international institutions such as University of MelbourneGalleria dell’Accademia, Accademia di Belle Arti and Conservatorio Luigi Cherubini di Firenze.

“First Commissions” was a huge artistic project which involved 30 australian artists. Five of them worked on Michelangelo’s David realizing works of art founded on a simple question: what is physical perfection today?
