The Hidden Gallery: Art, Design, and Social Commitment<\/h3>\n\n\n\n

The Hidden Gallery<\/strong> project is born from the intersection of art, design, and social commitment, taking the form of a capsule collection of twelve unique ski jackets created by the Turin-based brand JAAM (Just About A Minute)<\/strong> and customized with works by artist Ugo Nespolo<\/strong>. Online sales began on Christmas Day and will continue until February 3, 2026<\/strong>; all proceeds are dedicated to supporting oncological research at the Piedmontese Foundation for Cancer Research in Candiolo<\/strong>.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Each jacket is a unique artist\u2019s piece. The lining features reinterpretations of historical paintings\u2014including Museo Matisse<\/em>, Volti e Maschere<\/em>, and La Musique<\/em>\u2014in compositions that integrate collage and Pop Art elements. The artwork is not displayed but sheltered: hidden yet simultaneously an integral part of the object, designed to be lived in and worn.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

The project is rooted in a family and cultural history that spans Italian design of the late 20th century. In the 1960s, GUFRAM<\/strong> was founded in Turin as a creative laboratory for Radical Design, known for its pioneering use of innovative materials like polyurethane and for creating iconic objects. It was in this context that the vision of art as a “house of art” took shape: a place of experimentation where the object is not merely functional or decorative, but a carrier of meaning and emotion.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Today\u2019s dialogue between Nespolo\u2019s work and JAAM jackets stems from this legacy. The collection features Alcantara<\/strong>, a material previously explored in interior design and applied here, for the first time, to technical skiwear. This capsule represents a double innovation: the first ski jacket made of Alcantara and the first to contain a signature work of art.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

The Hidden Gallery<\/strong> thus stands as a project that transcends the traditional boundaries between applied arts, design, and technical fashion. It is an initiative that reaffirms the idea of dynamic art\u2014capable of entering everyday life\u2014while assuming ethical responsibility by making a concrete contribution to a vital collective cause.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
