Bottega Veneta Launches New Series "Bottega Veneta for the Arts" Collaborating with Contemporary Creators
Summary
Italian luxury brand Bottega Veneta has launched a new collaboration project called "Bottega Veneta for the Arts," centered on ongoing dialogue with contemporary creators. The first installment features British photographer Peter Fraser, who produced a 27‑image series set in Venice, juxtaposing micro and macro perspectives to capture the city's texture, form, and color. Born in 1953 in Wales, Fraser’s work draws on experiences in New York, West Africa, and Europe, emphasizing light‑filled beauty and poetic truth. The series also takes inspiration from creative director Louise Trottier’s debut collection "Summer 2026" and introduces new variations of the brand’s iconic bags, referencing Bottega Veneta’s 1966 founding in Veneto. Building on past collaborations with photographer Duane Michaels and painter Popi Jones, the project aims to strengthen the connection between Venice’s legacy and today’s creative scene.
