Bulgari, the iconic Roman jewelry house renowned for its timeless designs and masterful craftsmanship, is doubling down on its cultural credentials by becoming the exclusive partner of La Biennale di Venezia’s International Art Exhibition for the next three editions: 2026, 2028, and 2030. Announced at the Biennale’s official presentation at Ca’ Giustinian, this partnership marks a natural evolution for Bulgari, further cementing its role in contemporary art. Far beyond crafting exquisite jewelry, Bulgari emerges as a committed patron, actively preserving and advancing artistic expression.

This latest venture builds directly on Bulgari’s established history of supporting the arts, notably through Fondazione Bvlgari, founded in 2024. The Foundation embodies Bulgari’s belief in culture as a limitless resource, dedicated to protecting artistic heritage for future generations. By aligning itself with the Biennale, the brand underscores this mission, amplifying its contribution to contemporary discourse on art and culture.

The Biennale’s upcoming 2026 exhibition, In Minor Keys, conceived by the late curator Koyo Kouoh, will focus on themes like improvisation and emotional resonance. Bulgari’s involvement promises to enrich the visitor experience, further positioning Venice and Bulgari as dynamic centers of global artistic influence.
