GIANFRANCO MEGGIATO EVERMORE | AURUM IN AERE BVLGARI Boutique Florence Via de’ Tornabuoni 56/r, Florence 17 June – 4 July 2026 We are pleased to invite you to visit EVERMORE | AURUM IN AERE, a solo exhibition by the Venetian sculptor Gianfranco Meggiato, hosted at the BVLGARI Boutique in Florence. An internationally acclaimed artist, creator of the concept of Introsculpture and recipient of the ICOMOS–UNESCO Award, Gianfranco Meggiato has developed a sculptural language based on the dialogue between matter and inner consciousness, between visible form and invisible energy. The title of the exhibition brings together two conceptual dimensions. Evermore evokes that which endures beyond time: not what we possess, but what retains its value even as everything around it changes. Aurum in Aere — “gold within bronze” — recalls the classical tradition and Latin culture, evoking the presence of a hidden preciousness enclosed within the material itself. In this exhibition, sculptures in polished bronze and gold enter into dialogue with the spaces of the BVLGARI Boutique, creating a meeting point between contemporary art and jewelry. Meggiato transforms bronze into dynamic and contemplative structures in which matter becomes symbol, reflection, and vision. EVERMORE | AURUM IN AERE invites visitors to look beyond the surface of things, in a dialogue between material and immaterial preciousness, between what shines before the eyes and what illuminates consciousness. Book your private visit: RSVP +39 055 2396786 or simply reply to this email with the word “CONFIRM,” indicating your preferred date and time of visit. We would be delighted to welcome you. Kind regards, Gianfranco Meggiato
