Alessio Lazazzera, general manager of Hotel Excelsior, has chosen to focus on the value of fine Venetian craftsmanship to create a programme of events that present the hotel’s new direction, and to do so, he has chosen Venezia da Vivere. Laura Scarpa, Lorenzo Cinotti and Jacopo Casotto are committed to ensuring that Venice is recognised worldwide as a city of high level craftsmanship and creativity – productive, sustainable and contemporary.
The Hotel Excelsior is the place to be for the summer of 2021: a period palazzo that features exotic Moorish architecture, where contemporary luxury blends with the splendour of history.
The eighteen brands narrate tales of talent, creativity and Venetian craftsmanship: precious fabrics, hand-painted silks, unique creations – a combination of tailoring and design. The three events will be inaugurated with a conference on the future of Venetian craftsmanship hosted by Stefano Micelli, Lorenzo Cinotti and Laura Scarpa, and will be enriched by an exhibition of the brands’ creations, starting from historical names and ending with the young generation, in the iconic windows of the hotel. The exhibition is open to the public from June to October 2021.
