It was inaugurated on Thursday, April 23., at the Simonelli Group Headquarter, the solo exhibition of Matteo Costanzo, winner in 2025 of the eighth edition of the Pannaggi/New Generation Prize.
The initiative is part of the activities of Simonelli Group, which for years has flanked its industrial commitment with concrete action in favor of contemporary art and the enhancement of young talent, recognizing culture as a key factor for growth and responsible innovation.
The exhibition is promoted in collaboration with the “Amici di Palazzo Buonaccorsi” Association and the Civic Museums of Macerata and opened on Thursday, April 23 with the traditional ceremony where the artist donates an artwork to the Prize’s Main Sponsor, Simonelli Group, renewing a virtuous dialogue between business, art and community.
In addition to presenting a selection of the artworks that have already received wide public and critical acclaim in recent months at Palazzo Buonaccorsi in Macerata, Matteo Costanzo was present at the opening, offering the public an opportunity for a direct encounter with his artistic universe.
Exhibition: CTRL+Z
The personal CTRL+Z unfolds as an immersive and conceptually intense journey that invites reflection on the fragilities and tensions of contemporaneity. Through collage, stickerpainting, video loops and installations, Costanzo constructs a visual language in which the material of communication, made of images, words, icons and information fragments, is deconstructed and recomposed, generating new possibilities of meaning.
The use of materials such as extruded polystyrene, liquid plastic, and acrylic paint gives the works a strong plastic and chromatic component, resulting in unstable and radiating surfaces that evoke the disorientation of hyperconnected humanity, immersed in a continuous information overabundance.
A project that looks to the future
On the occasion of the exhibition of Matteo Costanzo – which can be visited from April 24 to May 29, 2026 at the Simonelli Group Headquarter (Monday – Friday 8:30am -5:30pm) the public will be able to admire all the winning artworks of the past editions of the Pannaggi/New Generation Prize.
A path that concretely testifies to the continuity of Simonelli Group’s commitment to supporting new generations of artists, contributing to the dissemination of contemporary culture and strengthening the link between creative talent, territory and corporate social responsibility.
