In Milan from Dec. 3 to Jan. 6, at Spazio Isolaset in Piazza Città di Lombardia, the second edition of Art at heart returns, the group exhibition to celebrate the most colorful and pop Christmas ever with: Simone Legno's Luce, Andy Warhol's Marilyn 1967, Cai Wanlin's Why Why - YY, Gaetano Pesce's Shadow, Flavio Lucchini's Dolls and many other works and iconic pieces by artists who have art, design and fashion in their hearts.
It will be the large installation of Luce - mascot of the Jubilee 2025 - drawn in manga style by illustrator Simone Legno, to welcome the public to Art at heart, the exhibition that on the occasion of the Milanese Christmas wants to convey the universal and contemporary language of Pop Art.
This year, the itinerary of Arte nel Cuore offers a sensory journey capable of touching people's souls. In addition to Luce, 10 works by Andy Warhol will stand out. These include the famous 1967 Marilyn, in bold and bright pop colors; a rare version of St. Apollonia, inspired by Piero della Francesca's masterpiece; and the even rarer Heart, the heart of the acknowledged master of Pop Art.
The exhibition also opens to the East with artist Cai Wanlin, a leading figure in Chinese Pop Art. Through oil paintings on canvas and sculptures, with his character Why Why - YY, Wanlin offers a fresh and original vision of the contemporary world.

On display are sculptures and numerous icons of design, art and fashion: from Gaetano Pesce's Shadow to Flavio Lucchini's Dolls, from Diego Gugliermetto's creations to Bonfilio's sculpture-hats and Sara Digiovanni's wearable artworks.
A journey into Pop Art, between design and fashion, inviting visitors, from children to adults, to explore a magical world. A creative and relaxing experience designed to stimulate the mind and heart and offer new perspectives to awaken the wonder of thought and imagination.
Among much color and mulled apples, the vernissage - open to the public - in the presence of Attilio Fontana president of the Lombardy Region, will be held on Dec. 3 from 6 p.m.
