With the beginning of summer, we have arrived midway in a year that has allowed us to celebrate many new products. After the new B.zero1 jewels, a magnificent High Jewellery collection was launched in June expressing Bulgari’s creative inspiration and the inimitable spirit of a brand that is an emblem of allure and reflects the historical heritage and lifestyle of Rome and the Mediterranean.

In jewellery, 2016 is also a year celebrating the serpent. With its new collection, Bulgari has reinterpreted one of its most iconic designs. Inspired by the jewels of the Egyptian queen Cleopatra and redesigned in the forties, this year Serpenti celebrates the magnetic gaze of the animal captured in the central element of the head, which has been transformed into a precious new pendant for the collection. Bulgari interprets the allure of the serpent, a symbol of seduction, through bold contemporary style and superb artisan workmanship. This seductive power also emerges in accessories. The Serpenti Forever bag once again confirms an irresistible icon celebrated in this special year by our beautiful new Ambassador of Accessories, Rosie Huntington-Whiteley.

More surprises and new challenges await us in the second half of the year, and we look forward to sharing with you the amazing new creations and all of the allure of the Bulgari world!

Jean-Christophe BabinCEO of BVLGARI GROUP

Rosie Huntington-Whiteley, attrice e modella britannica, dalla stagione Autunno/Inverno 2016 è la nuova Accessories Ambassador della Maison Bulgari. «Mi sento molto onorata per il

ruolo di ambasciatrice degli Accessori Bulgari – afferma Rosie –, un marchio che ho sempre amato per tutto ciò che rappresenta e per l’heritage che possiede. Bul-gari, per me, è sinonimo di savoir-faire unito a un’ecce-zionale ricerca stilistica che non può che essere italiana. Quando porto degli orec-chini o indosso una borsa e degli occhiali Bulgari, mi rendo conto ogni volta di quanto possano aggiun-gere in termini di bellezza e allure». Nata a Plymouth nel 1987, cresce a Tavistock, dove

viene scoperta appena sedi-cenne. La sua carriera inizia velocemente, dopo il trasfe-rimento a New York City. Non si contano le campagne e le sfilate per i maggiori marchi mondiali, i servizi e i redazionali di cui è protago-nista. Tra le undici donne del Calendario Pirelli di Terry Richardson nel 2010. Rosie, bionda, tratti regolarissimi, fisicità perfetta, è una bel-lezza iconica, ma al tempo stesso intensa e moderna. L’iconico Serpente Bulgari sigla anche il suo accesso-rio preferito: «Adoro la mia borsa Serpenti Forever con onici nere. – Afferma – È un modello perfetto per poter passare dal giorno alla sera. Elegante, cool, unico». Eletta per ben due volte modella dell’anno agli Elle Style Awards, nel 2011 debutta al cinema in Trans-formers: Dark of the Moon, ma si afferma pienamente nel ruolo di Angharad in Mad Max: Fury Road, film di George Miller, vincitore di sei premi Oscar nell’e-dizione 2016. «Che cosa significa il serpente per me? – Conclude – È l’emblema della saggezza, della vita e dell’eternità, che parla un

linguaggio atemporale. Il serpente è l’icona Bulgari per eccellenza».

British actress/model Rosie Huntington-Whiteley is Bul-gari’s new Accessories Am-bassador for the Fall/Winter 2016 season. «I’m very honored to be the Accessories Ambas-sador for Bulgari, a brand that I have always loved for its heritage and everything it represents,» says Rosie. «To me, Bulgari is savoir-faire com-bined with exceptional stylis-tic research that could only be Italian. When I wear Bulgari earrings, sunglasses or a bag, I realize each time how much they add in terms of beauty and allure.» Born in Plymouth, U.K., in 1987, she grew up in Tavistock, where she was dis-covered when she was merely sixteen. Her career progressed rapidly after she moved to New York City. She has appeared in countless advertising cam-paigns and runway shows for international brands and has been featured in numerous photo spreads and magazine articles. She was one of the eleven women featured in the Pirelli Calendar shot by Terry

Richardson in 2010. With her blonde hair, flawless features and perfect body, Rosie is an iconic yet intense and mod-ern beauty. The iconic Bulgari Serpente also decorates her favorite accessory. «I adore my Serpenti Forever bag with black onyx,» she says. «It is the perfect bag from day to night: elegant, cool, and unique.» Elected twice as Model of the Year at the Elle Style Awards, in 2011 she made her film de-but in Transformers: Dark of the Moon, but made a name for herself as an actress with the role of Angharad in Mad Max: Fury Road by George Miller, which won six Oscars in 2016. «What does the ser-pent mean to me?» she ponders the question and replies: «It’s an emblem of wisdom, life, and eternity. It speaks a timeless language. The serpent is the Bulgari icon par excellence.»

8 Life in BVLGARI Issue 8

«Nel 2009 – racconta Clau-dio Tesauro, Presidente di Save the Children Italia – per il centoventicinquesimo anniversario della fonda-zione, Bulgari ha scelto di sostenere, a livello mon-diale, Save the Children. La Maison ha pensato che la bellezza di un gioiello – un ciondolo, un anello e un bracciale, quest’ultimo in aggiunta a maggio 2016 – insieme al coinvolgimento di personalità e celebrities, potevano fare la differenza per tanti bambini in ogni parte del globo. Un per-corso che Bulgari e STC stanno facendo insieme con un obiettivo comune, che anima ogni azione: i diritti dei bambini. Creare gioielli che rappresentino questo impegno è un importante atto di concretezza che dà, a chi lo indossa, la pos-sibilità di testimoniare il proprio coinvolgimento personale. I nostri risul-tati spingono verso sfide sempre più impegnative e ambiziose». Sono stati rag-giunti oltre novecento mila bambini in ventinove Paesi diversi, implementando più di settanta progetti di educazione di base e di prima infanzia, includendo

bambini con disabilità o appartenenti a minoranze. «Una delle nostre maggiori sfide oggi – continua Clau-dio Tesauro – è quella di investire nella formazione di adolescenti in condizioni di forte vulnerabilità al fine di garantire le competenze professionali necessarie per cambiare il corso della loro vita». Oltre a ciò STC si occupa di fronteggiare le Emergenze. L’indomani del tragico terremoto del Nepal, gli Ambasciatori della partnership tra STC e Bulgari, tra cui Adrien Brody, Jon Kortajarena, Lilly zu Sayn-Wittgenstein-Berleburg, hanno prestato il loro aiuto: «Credo che il senso di questo impegno sia racchiuso nelle parole di Isabella Ferrari, che nel suo diario di viaggio in Nepal ha scritto ‘Non è vero che siamo una goccia nell’o-ceano. Quando proviamo ad aiutare chi ha perso tutto, diventiamo l’oceano stesso’». Conclude Tesauro parlando del coinvolgi-mento dei dipendenti di Bulgari in questa partner-ship: «Sono oltre duecento i membri dello staff dell’a-zienda che hanno avuto modo di visitare i programmi

di Save the Children realiz-zati grazie a Bulgari. Sono diventati essi stessi testimo-nial dell’impegno aziendale a favore dell’infanzia e, allo stesso tempo, è stata un’oc-casione per accrescere il loro senso di appartenenza alla Maison».

•

«In 2009, for the one hundred and fiftieth anniversary of its foundation, Bulgari decided to become an international spon-sor of Save the Children,» said Claudio Tesauro, President of Save the Children Italia. «The Maison thought that a beau-tiful jewel – a necklace, ring and now a bracelet, which was added in May 2016 – and the involvement of personalities and celebrities could make a difference for countless chil-dren around the globe. Bul-gari and Save the Children created this partnership with a common objective that in-spires every action: children’s rights. Creating jewellery that represents this commitment is an important act of substance that gives the wearer an op-portunity to show her per-sonal involvement. Our results have convinced us to embrace even more difficult and ambi-

tious challenges.» Over nine hundred thousand children in twenty-nine countries have been reached through the im-plementation of over seventy projects promoting basic ed-

ucation and infant care, also for children with disabilities or those belonging to a minority. «One of our biggest challenges today is investing in the edu-cation of adolescents living in very vulnerable conditions, to allow them to acquire the nec-essary professional skills that can change their lives,» con-tinued Claudio Tesauro. Save the Children is also involved in emergency operations. Af-ter the tragic earthquake in Nepal, the Ambassadors of the partnership between Save

the Children and Bulgari, including Adrien Brody, Jon Kortajarena, and Lilly zu Sayn-Wittgenstein-Berleburg, offered their help. «I believe that the sense of this commit-ment is represented by the words of Isabella Ferrari, who wrote in her travel diary while in Nepal, ‘It is not true that we are a drop in the ocean. When we try to help someone who has lost everything, we become the ocean.’ Over two hundred employees had the chance to visit Save the Children pro-grams implemented thanks to Bulgari,» concluded Tesauro, speaking about Bulgari staff involved in this partnership. «They themselves became tes-timonials of the company’s

commitment to help children, and it was also an occasion to reinforce their connection with the maison.»

Tra passato, presente e futuro, Carla Liuni, Execu-tive Vice President Global Marketing & Communica-tion di Bulgari, racconta l’evoluzione storica ed este-tica della Maison sempre predisposta all’avanguardia.

Conduzione famigliare e gestione managerialeLa Maison Bulgari nasce da un’impresa famigliare che nel corso di tre generazioni ha attraversato la storia del Novecento evolvendosi in una dimensione internazio-nale e forgiando al tempo stesso uno stile distin-tivo, radicato nella cultura mediterranea e capace di anticipare le tendenze. Nel 2011 l’azienda è confluita in un’altra grande famiglia, il Gruppo LVMH, da sempre attento a valorizzare la sto-ria e i codici stilistici delle oltre sessanta maison che ne fanno parte. Questa lun-gimiranza imprenditoriale ha consentito a Bulgari di mantenere intatti i valori di creatività e innovazione che

ci caratterizzano. Allo stesso tempo, appartenere a un gruppo così prestigioso ci ha permesso di affermarci ancora di più come brand globale del lusso in virtù di sinergie nei mercati in cui eravamo già presenti e in quelli più promettenti nei quali investire. Heritage BulgariBulgari ha scritto pagine nella storia della gioielleria con intuizioni all’avanguar-dia sul modo di vivere e concepire i gioielli: per Bul-gari, infatti, il gioiello deve essere piacevole non solo da ammirare ma anche da indossare. In questo senso, il design più innovativo, l’esplosione dei colori, la rivisitazione delle radici greco-romane della Maison e la sperimentazione con i materiali si sono abbinati a una manifattura impec-cabile e a uno studio dei volumi che facessero per-cepire il gioiello come una seconda pelle. L’ispirazione è andata sempre di pari

passo con il clima culturale e sociale delle diverse epo-che: mi riferisco ad esempio alla creatività Bulgari degli anni Settanta, quando un’e-stetica grafica e colorata si ispirava alla mostra King Tut del 1976 al Metropolitan di

New York; all’ecclettismo nei temi, frutto delle sug-gestioni della Pop Art. Lo spirito pionieristico di Bul-gari continua a esprimersi con successo ancora oggi: in gioielleria abbiamo rein-ventato in chiave moderna e colorata l’antico taglio takhti delle pietre, mentre le ultime creazioni Serpenti di alta gioielleria affiancano il legno snakewood all’oro rosa. Solo due esempi di come il marchio sappia

mantenere sempre vive le proprie icone e codici stilistici, evolvendosi ma rimanendo fedele a sé stesso.

Gioielli imprescindibiliLe creazioni che ho amato in passato oggi mi piacciono per gli stessi motivi. L’a-nello B.zero�, lanciato più di sedici anni fa, è ancora oggi moderno e sorprendente in tutte le versioni che si sono succedute: in ceramica, in marmo, fino all’ultima ver-sione nei tre ori. Serpenti è un altro motivo dal cari-sma insuperato sia nelle creazioni heritage sia nelle reinterpretazioni di gioielli e di orologi. Le creazioni Monete racchiudono l’abi-lità di Bulgari nel tradurre motivi classici in un lin-guaggio contemporaneo.

Alta GioielleriaL’antichissima tecnica della cera persa è ancora oggi utilizzata – certo, con mac-chinari avanzatissimi. Ieri come oggi, la rifinitura dei

singoli pezzi che compon-gono il gioiello, nonché della creazione nel suo insieme, è effettuata com-pletamente a mano, perché solo l’insostituibile sensi-bilità degli occhi e del tatto dell’artigiano orafo riesce a ottenere quell’umana per-fezione, impensabile per una macchina. SerpentiUn motivo iconico come Serpenti è sempre stato al centro di tante iniziative ed eventi, non ultime le splen-dide installazioni luminose sulle facciate dei negozi, di grande impatto visivo. Quest’anno abbiamo voluto fare un ulteriore omaggio a questo segno così impor-tante nella storia della Maison attraverso il pre-zioso libro Serpenti in Art, un progetto editoriale ide-ato da Bulgari per illustrare come il motivo del ser-pente abbia ispirato anche tanti protagonisti di spicco dell’arte contemporanea, vuoi per le sue caratteristi-che squisitamente estetiche, vuoi per i molteplici signifi-cati – seduzione, rinascita, saggezza, trasformazione – ad esso associati attra-verso le epoche e le civiltà. Bulgari, del resto, è sempre stato un Marchio sensibile alle contaminazioni fra il mondo dell’arte e quello del gioiello. Oltre alle opere d’arte nel libro sono pre-senti anche scatti suggestivi di creazioni Serpenti della Bulgari Heritage Collection affiancati da bozzetti d’e-poca, per far capire come anche nel mondo della gioielleria il serpente può essere concepito e realiz-zato come un’opera d’arte. Il motivo del serpente continua naturalmente a ispirarci ancora oggi nei molteplici aspetti che lo rendono così affascinante: le nuove collezioni del 2016 su gioielli, orologi e acces-sori ne sono una prova e

sono certa che il futuro ci riserverà ulteriori sorprese creative! B.zero1L’anello B.zero� è un pezzo relativamente recente di Bulgari che ha cambiato la storia della gioielleria. Lan-ciato nel 1999, è il primo gioiello divenuto un oggetto di design, e per questo si è trasformato in un’osses-sione di mercato rimasta a oggi immutata. B.zero� rap-presenta l’essenza dello stile Bulgari nella commistione fra le radici romane del Brand – presenti nelle linee inconfondibili del Colosseo che l’anello richiama – e la capacità di reinterpretarle in chiave contemporanea. ViperLa decisione di lanciare degli accessori a firma Bul-gari risale agli anni Novanta, con l’obiettivo di trasferire la creatività del marchio anche ad altre categorie di prodotto, certamente più accessibili, ma che allo stesso tempo dovevano incorporare tutta la multi sfaccettata eccellenza della Maison. I motivi e i temi più celebri del Marchio in gio-ielleria – Serpenti, il doppio logo BVLGARI BVLGARI, e altri – sono stati rivisitati in chiave chic e metropoli-tana, rimanendo allo stesso tempo riconoscibili. Credo la chiave del successo delle borse Bulgari sia da un lato la coerenza con i codici del brand e dall’altro una creatività estremamente contemporanea. La colle-zione Serpenti Forever in continua ascesa così come l’ultimo modello Viper – apprezzato tantissimo dalla stampa – sono una riprova del nostro successo. La culturaBulgari continuerà anche nei prossimi anni a sostenere progetti di mecenatismo culturale, volti a valorizzare

o restituire alla Città Eterna i suoi monumenti in tutta la loro bellezza. Oltre alla sca-linata di Trinità dei Monti, anche gli splendidi mosaici pavimentali delle Terme di Caracalla sono stati restau-rati grazie al contributo di Bulgari, un omaggio del resto quasi ‘dovuto’ visto che sono stati di ispirazione per la nostra collezione di gioielli DIVAS’ DREAM. Sempre in tema di legame di Bulgari con Roma, da novembre di quest’anno allestiremo a Madrid una mostra che racconterà, attra-verso gioielli e dipinti del Settecento e dell’Ottocento, come tanti dettagli artistici e architettonici della Città

Eterna abbiano ispirato la creatività di Bulgari. Lungo il percorso espositivo, Roma apparirà quindi ritratta nei suoi angoli significativi e, al contempo, trasfigurata in gioielli che la richia-mano pur avendo una loro connotazione stilistica. Molti dei quadri in mostra proverranno proprio dalle collezioni di musei romani: un modo in più quindi per far conoscere le tante bellezze che la città offre, all’aria aperta, negli spazi museali e… nelle creazioni Bulgari.

Carla Liuni, the Executive Vice President of Global Marketing & Communication at Bulgari, talks about the historical and aesthetic evolution of this pi-oneering brand as well as its past, present and future.

A family-owned business with a managerial approachBulgari, which started out as a family-run business, evolved in the 20th century: in just three generations it transformed into an international enterprise while forging its distinctive trend-setting style rooted in Mediterranean culture. In 2011 the company joined another large family – LVMH Group – which has always valued and promoted the history and style of its over sixty luxury brands. LVMH Group’s far-sighted entrepreneurial approach has allowed Bulgari to preserve its distinctive creativity and innovation. At the same time, belonging to such a prestigious group has allowed Bulgari to become even more success-ful as a global luxury brand through synergetic actions in established markets and in promising new ones for future investments. Bulgari’s heritage Bulgari wrote pages in the history of jewellery with its avant-garde intuitions of how jewellery is experienced and designed. For Bulgari, in fact, jewellery must not only be pleasing to the eye but also pleasurable to wear. In this sense, the most innovative de-sign, a burst of vibrant colours, a reinterpretation of the mai-son’s Greek-Roman roots, and experimentation with materi-als are combined with flawless workmanship and a study of volumes to make the jewel seem like a second skin. Inspiration has always gone hand in hand with the cultural and social climate of various periods: for example, Bulgari’s creativity in the seventies when its colourful, graphic aesthetic was inspired by the King Tut exhibit at the Metropolitan Museum of New York in 1976 and its eclectic themes inspired by Pop Art. Bulgari’s pioneering spirit is still successfully expressed today: we gave the ancient takhti cut of stones a modern, more colourful interpreta-

tion in jewellery, while the lat-est Serpenti High Jewellery creations combine snakewood and rose gold. These are just two examples of how the brand keeps its icons and styles alive and evolving while staying true to itself.

Essential jewelsI still love the creations I loved in the past for the same reasons. The B.zero1 ring launched over sixteen years ago is still modern and amazing in every version: ceramic, marble and the new three-gold version. Serpenti is another theme with unequalled charisma, both in its heritage creations and the reinterpreta-tions of jewellery and watches. The Monete creations reveal Bulgari’s ability to transform classic motifs into a contempo-rary language. High JewelleryThe ancient lost wax tech-nique is still used today – with state-of-the-art machinery, of course. Today as in the past, the refinishing of each piece and assembly of the jewel are completely performed by hand because only the artisan gold-smith’s keen eyes and sensitive touch can obtain that perfec-tion which is unthinkable for a machine. SerpentiThe iconic Serpenti motif has always been the protagonist of many projects and events, including the splendid and vis-ually striking light installations on our boutique façades. This year we wanted to pay homage to this theme which has been so important in the history of the maison through Serpenti in Art, an editorial project con-ceived by Bulgari to illustrate how the serpent theme has also inspired many influential ex-ponents of contemporary art due to its exquisitely aesthetic characteristics and its myriad meanings – seduction, rebirth, wisdom and transformation – associated with it through the ages and civilizations. Bulgari

has always been interested in how the worlds of art and jewellery have influenced each other. Besides the works of art featured in the book, there are also remarkable photos of Serpenti creations from the Bulgari Heritage Collection accompanied by sketches of the period to show how the ser-pent can also be conceived as a work of art in the jewellery world. Of course, the serpent motif still inspires us today in many aspects that make it so fascinating: the new 2016 col-

lections of jewellery, watches, and accessories are further proof of this, and I’m certain that more creative surprises are in store in the future! B.zero1The B.zero1 ring is a relatively recent piece by Bulgari that changed the history of jew-ellery-making. Launched in 1999, it was the first jewel to be-come a design object, which is why the market is still obsessed with it. B.zero1 is the essence of Bulgari style: a blend of the brand’s Roman roots – present in the unmistakable lines of the Colosseum that the ring evokes – and its ability to reinterpret them in a modern way. ViperThe decision to launch Bulgari accessories dates back to the nineties, with the objective of transferring the brand’s crea-tivity to other product catego-ries that were certainly more accessible yet also had to incor-porate the maison’s multi-fac-eted excellence. The brand’s most famous motifs and themes in jewellery – Serpenti, the BVLGARI BVLGARI double

logo and others – were given a chic, cosmopolitan re-inter-pretation that was nevertheless recognizable. I believe the key to the success of Bulgari bags is, on one hand, their reflection of the brand’s style and, on the other, their extremely modern creativity. The increasingly popular Serpenti Forever collection and the latest style Viper – which the press loves – confirm our success. CultureBulgari will continue to spon-sor cultural projects in the fu-ture that seek to promote or restore the monuments of the Eternal City to their original glory. Besides its restoration of the Spanish Steps, Bulgari also helped restore the splen-did mosaic pavements of the Caracalla Baths, which was the ‘right thing’ to do because these mosaics were inspira-tion for our DIVAS’ DREAM jewellery collection. Always regarding Bulgari’s ties with Rome, we will create an ex-hibit in Madrid in November 2016 that will show, through the jewellery and paintings of the 18th and 19th centuries, how many artistic and architectural details of Rome inspired Bul-gari creativity. The exhibit will present the most significant areas of Rome appearing in works of art and transfigured into jewellery evoking them while preserving their distinc-tive style. Many of the paintings on display will come from the collections of Roman muse-ums. It is a way to introduce the many beautiful things that Rome has to offer – outdoors, in museums, and in Bulgari creations.

蛇

Serpenti蛇作为一个标志性的图

案在许多项目和活动中始终占据着

重要的地位，包括最近在各精品店

外安装的具有极强视觉冲击力的灯

光艺术装置。今年，我们想通过出

版《蛇的艺术》这本书籍再次向这

个代表宝格丽历史最重要的标志性

符号致敬。出版计划由宝格丽策

划，它意在向人们传达蛇的图案也

同样启发了许许多多著名的当代艺

术家，这其中涉及蛇精美玄妙的美

学特征，也揭示出蛇贯穿不同时代

和文明的多重寓意 – 魅惑、重

生、智慧、变化。不仅如此，出版

这本书还表明了宝格丽品牌在艺术

世界与珠宝世界之间互为紧密

的关系。除了艺术作品外，书中还

包括宝格丽卓越的古董典藏系

列-Serpenti蛇形作品及其手绘草

图，它让人们能够明白在珠宝世界

里，蛇形如何被构思和制作成为一

件艺术杰作。如今，蛇形图案仍然

在很多方面启发着创意灵

感，2016年推出的新款系列珠

宝、腕表和配饰就是最好的例证。

我相信，将来还会有更多意想不到

的创意!

指代表了宝格丽风格的精髓，通过

表现古罗马斗兽场独特的线条轮

廓，它将品牌的罗马本源与当代时

尚的重新诠释完美地融合在一起。

蝰蛇

宝格丽决定推出配饰可以追溯到

上个世纪九十年代，它的目的是

将品牌的创意扩展到其它比较容

易涉及的产品领域，但同时又必

须保持宝格丽各方面卓越的特

征。因此，品牌在珠宝中最著名

的图案和主题 – Serpenti蛇形、BVLGARI BVLGARI双标识和其它风格元素以时尚和

都市化的视角得到重新诠释，同

时又保持了品牌容易辨识的鲜明

特征。我相信，宝格丽手袋成功

的关键在于，一方面它与品牌的

风格特征保持一致，另一方面又

充分反映出当代时尚的创

意。Serpenti Forever蛇形手袋

系列越来越流行，还有最新的

Viper蝰蛇手袋，它们都受到媒体

的大加推崇，是我们再次获得成

功的最好证明。

文化

宝格丽在未来几年仍将继续支持文

化保护与资助项目，目的是弘扬或

重现永恒之城历史古迹的致美。除

了西班牙广场台阶的修复，宝格丽

还资助修复了卡拉卡拉浴场精美的

马赛克地板画。这是“理所应当”

的资助，因为我们的DIVASʼ DREAM系列珠宝的创意灵感就

来源于此。为了呈现宝格丽与罗马

的关系，今天十一月份，我们还将

在马德里举办一次展览，通过珠宝

及十八世纪和十九世纪的绘画作

品，展览将向人们描述永恒之城罗

与建筑细节。在展览中，我们将呈

现罗马最有意义并如何演绎成珠

Il serpente, tema fortemente simbolico nell’universo della gioielleria, con il suo immaginario attraversa epo-che e ambiti culturali. Oltre al fascino e alle infinite suggestioni che incarna, assomma in sé un mosaico di magiche sfumature. Rap-presenta l’eternità, il ciclo

della natura, la guarigione, la saggezza e la conoscenza di cui è guardiano. Custode di un potere primordiale, il serpente ama celarsi nelle profondità del la terra . Quando ne emerge, diviene suggello della vita stessa. Creatura arcana e mutevole, dalle movenze eleganti e sinuose, scintillante consi-stenza di scaglie metalliche e occhi di diamante o rubino,

è legato alla luna e ai suoi gradi di trasformazione, così come al fascino femminile. Quindi anche all’arte della seduzione, alla tentazione, come ci raccontano infinite fiabe e mitologie. Ecco per-ché già il mondo classico ha trasformato il serpente in monile per eccellenza, specie per anelli e bracciali. Cleopatra, nella propria identificazione con la dea Iside, lo fece totalmente suo. Il serpente si manife-sta tra le allegorie bizantine e nel fulgore creativo del Rinascimento, riemerge nel Settecento, grazie agli scavi di Pompei ed Ercolano. Infine, diviene leitmotiv per il Decadentismo della Salomè di Wilde, icona tra gli ori barbarici e orientali di Klimt, di Odilon Redon e Franz von Stuck. Per la Maison Bulgari è un segno di appartenenza assoluto, icona di un’intera cosmo-logia intessuta di pura bellezza e di un’emozione unica e fatale.

•

The image of the serpent, a strong symbolic theme in the jewellery world, has passed through epochs and different areas of culture. Besides its al-lure and the myriad moods that it incarnates, it is a mosaic of

magical nuances. It represents eternity, the cycle of nature, healing, wisdom, and knowl-edge of which it is the guard-ian. The custodian of a primor-dial power, the serpent loves to hide within the depths of the earth. When it emerges, it be-comes a symbol of life itself. An archaic and ever-changing creature with elegant, sinuous movements, composed of metal scales and with diamond or ruby eyes, it is tied to the moon and to its different levels of transformation as mercurial as feminine charm. It is also tied to the art of seduction and temptation, as narrated in countless fables and leg-ends. That is why already in ancient days the serpent was transformed into jewellery, especially rings and bracelets. Cleopatra, identifying with the goddess Isis, made the snake her own personal symbol. The serpent appears in Byzantine allegories and in the creative splendour of the Renaissance. Thanks to the excavation of Pompeii and Herculaneum, it re-emerged in the 18th century. Finally, it became a leitmotif for the Decadent movement of Wilde’s Salome and an icon amidst the Barbarian and oriental gold of Klimt, Odilon Redon and Franz von Stuck. For Bulgari, it is a hallmark and icon of an entire cosmol-ogy, an object of sheer beauty

and a unique and irresistible emotion.

蛇，在珠宝的世界里是一个极具象

征意义的主题，对蛇的想象穿越了

漫长的历史和不同背景的文化。它

不仅承载了神奇的魔力和无穷的魅

力，而且还呈现出各种各样魔幻迷

人的色彩。蛇代表着永恒、自然轮

回、愈合、智慧和知识，是守护之

神。它守护着一种原生的力量，喜

欢潜藏在地层的深处。当它浮现的

时候，就会成为孕育生命的象征。

它是神秘多变的精灵，举手投足之

间尽显优美高雅和婀娜蜿蜒，闪光

的金属鳞片以及钻石或红宝石的明

眸熠熠生辉。它与月亮和其圆缺变

化的程度联系在一起，宛如女性的

魅力。因此，正如许许多多神话传

说中所述，蛇表达了诱惑的艺术和

欲望。正因如此，自古以来，人们

从蛇演绎出了超凡脱俗的珠宝首

饰，尤其是戒指和手镯。埃及艳后

克里奥帕特拉被视为蛇身女神伊西

斯的化身，她完全以蛇作为个人的

象征。蛇还体现在拜占庭的神寓和

文艺复兴创新发展的辉煌之中。在

十八世纪对庞贝和赫库兰尼姆古城

的考古挖掘中，蛇的形象又重新焕

然而出。此外，蛇在王尔德

（Wilde）的戏剧作品《莎乐

美》中变成了颓废主义的思想寓

意，而且还成为克林姆（Klimt）充满疯狂和东方色彩的金色以及奥

迪隆·雷东（Odilon Redon）

和弗朗兹·冯·斯图克（Franz von Stuck）作品里的标志。对

于宝格丽来说，蛇是一个具有绝对

标志性的符号，一个编织纯美世界

和激起独特及魅惑情感的标志。

The small Spotted Leaf-Nosed Snake

is relatively unknown due to its

nocturnal habits and shyness.

It spends most of its time burrowing

underground and it hibernates in the

late fall and winter. It lives in sandy or

rocky environments. Its snout is blunt

and its scales are triangular


The small Taiwan Slug Snake lives in

the mountains or damp forests.

A nocturnal predator, it mainly eats

land slugs (hence its name).

It is non-venomous and

does not bite, but if it is captured it

uses its tail as protection

The Banded Krait has a powerful

neurotoxin in its venom. It is a

nocturnal predator and is also called

the “two-step snake” because its

venom can kill in less than an hour

The name of the Ring-Necked Snake

derives from the colored band around

its neck. The snake is mildly venomous

and is known for its defense posture

in which it exposes its ventral surface.

The male differs from the female

of the species due to small tubercles

on the scales behind the mouth

The Rainbow Water Snake is a fresh

water snake with a stocky body and

a very small head and beady eyes.

Its valvular nostrils allow it to survive

under water where it hunts frogs

and tadpoles. Its mild venom is not

harmful to humans

The Red-Bellied Snake is small and

shy. It is usually found underneath

piles of leaves and generally in forests

and very humid areas. It rarely bites

but if it is threatened, it flattens

its body and curls its lip in warning.

It only interacts with other serpents

during the mating phase

Miriam Leone, bellezza siciliana dai capelli rossi, giovane ed affermata attrice, ha iniziato la sua carriera con la vittoria alla sessantanove-sima edizione del Concorso Miss Italia, nel 2008, dove convince tutti non solo per la indubbia bellezza ma anche per la capacità comu-nicativa e la preparazione culturale. Molte le pellicole cinematografiche e le fiction cui ha partecipato – in que-sto ambito da ricordare sono le interpretazioni nella serie cult 1992 e nel serial poliziesco Non uccidere. Alla domanda su quali saranno i nuovi progetti, Miriam risponde: «Cerco di fare un passo dopo l’altro. Preferi-sco non parlare dei progetti a cui devo ancora iniziare a lavorare. Non prospetto la vita al futuro, ma mi pro-pongo di costruirla giorno per giorno». In tema di moda e gioielli, Miriam Leone con-fida che le piace ricercare innanzitutto l’originalità, la creatività e l’anima – che sia un gioiello o un abito, que-sta è la condizione unica e assoluta. «Apprezzo il lavoro di alcuni giovani designer e amo i gioielli d’epoca, anche tribali. Ammiro le grandi maison, come Bulgari , perché sanno unire un altis-simo livello artigiano con

veri e propri oggetti d’arte, capaci di entrare per sempre nell’immaginario collettivo globale e di scolpirsi nella memoria e nell’emozione di tutti. Classici che si rin-novano costantemente». Il suo legame con Bulgari, fedele alla propria pecu-liare e suggestiva maniera di esprimersi, Miriam Leone lo esplicita con parole e immagini dense di signifi-cato e fortemente evocative. «Bulgari per me è il sogno, i colori. È un film. È Eli-zabeth Taylor e Richard Burton, è eleganza. Monica Vitti. È il mio Paese, l’Italia. È unicità».

Miriam Leone, the stunning young red-haired actress from Sicily, began her career win-ning the sixty-ninth edition of the Miss Italia beauty pageant in 2008, where she convinced everyone not only of her un-questionable beauty but also of her communicational skills and cultural preparation. She has appeared in many films and popular TV series, such as the cult series 1992 and the police series Non Uccidere. When asked about new pro-jects, Miriam answers, «I try to take one step at a time. I prefer not talking about projects that

I haven’t begun yet. I don’t imagine my life in the future, but I intend to build it day by day». Regarding fashion and jewellery, Miriam Leone con-fesses that she seeks, first and foremost, originality, creativ-ity, and soul – whether it’s a dress or jewellery, this is the one and only condition. «I ad-mire the work of several young

designers and I love antique jewellery, even with tribal mo-tifs. I admire famous maisons such as Bulgari because they combine superb artisan work-manship with genuine objects of art that enter the collec-tive imagination worldwide and remain in the minds and hearts of everyone. They are classics that are constantly re-newed». True to her particular and impressive communicative style, Miriam Leone describes her relationship with Bulgari through evocative words and images full of meaning. «To me, Bulgari is a dream. Col-ours. A film. Elizabeth Taylor and Richard Burton. Ele-gance. Monica Vitti. Bulgari is

my country, Italy. It is unique.»

Il gruppo scultoreo, che raf-figura Laocoonte e i suoi figli stretti dalla morsa dei serpenti marini, racchiude in sé tutta la vibrante evoca-zione del mondo classico e insieme emana una dinamica espressionista che parla un linguaggio moderno. Que-sto calco settecentesco, in gesso, a grandezza naturale, è custodito nel Camaron d’Oro del cinquecentesco Palazzo Grimani di S. Maria Formosa, che porta il nome della famiglia veneziana che ne fece luogo d’arte. Il gesso, intriso dall’abba-gliante luminosità che filtra dalla serliana retrostante, riproduce l’originale mar-moreo databile al I Secolo a.C., rinvenuto nel 1506 sul Colle Oppio a Roma e oggi conservato al Museo Pio-Clementino dei Musei Vaticani. L’opera esercitò un influsso ispirativo rivo-luzionario sugli artisti dell’epoca. Il Laocoonte riproduce una drammatica danza di vita e di morte. I corpi in torsione eviden-ziano il terrore e lo sforzo fisico del sacerdote troiano e dei suoi figli nel cercare di liberarsi dagli spaventosi, splendidi, ed enormi rettili fatti scaturire dal mare dalla

vendetta di Atena – come si racconta nell’Eneide. Il vir-tuosismo dell’esecuzione del gruppo si risolve in un parossismo emotivo tea-trale al contempo realistico

e metafisico. I serpenti si annodano e avvolgono tutta la composizione, come lacci inarrestabili, unendo i tre nudi maschili in un fatale abbraccio. Il gruppo scul-toreo è un raggiungimento artistico che diviene pura epica e pathos.

•

The statue of Laocoön and his sons trapped within the writhing coils of sea-serpents is a vibrant evocation of the classical world that simulta-neously conveys an expres-sionist dynamic which speaks

a modern language. This 18th century full-scale plaster cast is in the Camaron d’Oro of the 16th century Palazzo Grimani di S. Maria Formosa, which bears the name of the Venetian family that transformed the building into a museum. The plaster cast, bathed in bril-liant light filtering through the Serliana window behind it, reproduces the original marble group dated to the 1st century A.D., unearthed in 1506 on the Oppian Hill in Rome and now preserved in the Pio-Clementino Museum of the Vatican Museums. The work had a revolutionary inspirational effect upon the artists of the day. The Laocoön group portrays a dramatic dance of life and death. The twisted bodies express the ter-ror and physical effort of the Trojan priest and his sons try-ing to free themselves from the fearsome, splendid, huge rep-tiles released from the sea by Athena in vengeance, as told in the Aeneid. The masterful execution of the group creates a dramatic emotional parox-ysm that is both realistic and metaphysical. The serpents coil and wrap around the en-tire composition like unstop-pable cords, uniting the three male nudes in a deadly em-

brace. The group is an artistic achievement that is pure epic and pathos.

La mostra SERPENTIForm esplora i simboli e la cre-atività legati al tema del serpente, motivo al centro della storia della Maison Bulgari e del suo prestigio internazionale. Nelle sale del Museo di Roma-Palazzo Braschi, fino all’8 maggio 2016, si dipana un’esperienza multisensoriale e una polie-drica narrazione intorno all’ispirazione che il ser-pente trasmette all’arte di ogni ambito e tempo. Oltre quaranta esemplari di Haute Joaillerie Serpenti Bul-gari, dagli anni ’60 a oggi, sono al centro di un eclet-tico itinerario che spazia da statue classiche dei Musei Capitolini ad antichi monili provenienti da Pompei e dal Museo Archeologico di Napoli, fino al moderno e al contemporaneo. Il polimate-rismo di Joana Vasconcelos dialoga con il colorismo fairy pop di Niki de Saint Phalle, dipinti e sculture di Alexander Calder si affian-cano all’astrattismo di Paul Klee, mentre i graffiti di Keith Haring si rispecchiano nel linguaggio immediato e contemporaneo di una video-installazione di Mat Collishaw. La fotografia è rappresentata da figure car-dine, tra arte e moda, quali il genio maledetto di Robert Mapplethorpe e la plasticità erotica di Helmut Newton. La tarsia tessile Quattro ser-penti del futurista Fortunato

Depero si raccorda al tap-peto Amiamo il Serpente del designer Piero Fornasetti. Non mancano abiti di scena indossati da Elizabeth Taylor in Cleopatra, di Joseph Man-kiewicz. SERPENTIForm è un appassionante viaggio nella multiforme, sinuosa ispirazione artistica nel segno del serpente, un mosaico di suggestioni ed evocazioni.

•

The SERPENTIForm exhibit explores the symbols and cre-ativity tied to the theme of the snake, a motif at the core of Bulgari’s history and inter-national prestige. The rooms of the Museum of Rome at Palazzo Braschi offer a mul-tisensory experience, telling a versatile story about the in-spiration that the serpent has transmitted to art in every area and epoch. Over forty Bul-gari Serpenti High Jewellery pieces, from the sixties to the present day, are at the centre of an itinerary that ranges from classic statues of the Capito-line Museums to ancient jewels from Pompeii and the Naples National Archaeological Mu-seum as well as modern, con-temporary pieces. The mixed media art of Joana Vasconce-los dialogues with the colourful pop fairy style of Niki de Saint Phalle, paintings and sculp-tures by Alexander Calder are placed next to the abstraction-

ism of Paul Klee, while Keith Haring’s graffiti is reflected in the contemporary language of a video-installation by Mat Collishaw. Photography is represented by pivotal figures of art and fashion, such as the wicked genius of Robert Map-plethorpe and the erotic plas-ticity of Helmut Newton. The Quattro serpenti (Four sna-kes) textile intarsia by futurist Fortunato Depero is linked to the Amiamo il Serpente (We love the snake) rug by designer Piero Fornasetti. The exhibit also presents costumes worn by Elizabeth Taylor in Cleopatra. SERPENTIForm is a passionate journey ex-ploring multiform artistic ex-pressions inspired by the snake in a mosaic of moods and evocations.
