CONTEMPORARY ART
Created to celebrate the meeting between art and wine, the biennial project “Costasera Contemporary Art” invites an internationally renowned artist from a country connected to Masi and its wines to create a work dedicated to Masi’s iconic Amarone Costasera.
THE AMARONE DRESSED BY ART
Each edition invites the selected artist to reinterpret the label of Costasera Amarone Classico, transforming every bottle into a small, collectible work of art. The result is a limited edition that celebrates the dialogue between wine, culture, and beauty.
The labels of the 2015 edition, featuring a reproduction of Maya von Moos’s artwork, adorn a selection of Costasera 1999 bottles.
THE METAMORPHOSES OF MATTER
“The label of Masi’s Amarone Costasera inspired me, opening doors to the opulence of Venice and the richness of Valpolicella. I drew inspiration from Venice itself and its painters: the red of Titian, the green of Veronese, the blue of Tiepolo, and the golden yellow of the mosaics. From my journey through Valpolicella, I brought with me the memory of the magic of grapes transforming over time, through the four seasons. I tried to condense all these impressions into a 3D animation, in a new and contemporary language.”
THE ARTIST
Maya von Moos, born in Switzerland in 1953, is an artist known for her experimental sculptures and vibrant use of color. She moved to New York in 1993, where she studied graphics and 3D animation at the Pratt Institute, integrating digital techniques into her work. Today, she creates videos and 3D-printed sculptures, exhibited in numerous international shows.
