Since its early years, Acqua dell'Elba has been firmly committed to supporting art.

Art is the ultimate expression of human creativity, something whose meaning and scope transcends its final form. For this reason, we have always viewed its protection and promotion as a way of safeguarding our best selves, a practice that allows us to strive, each day, for true harmony and perfection. The seed from which every innovation, every intuition, every new idea grows.

As Italians we also view the protection and promotion of Art as a duty given the key role it has played in our history and culture. A culture that has produced works of extraordinary beauty and artefacts that are known and appreciated all over the world.

Supporting art means continuously nurturing the beauty that surrounds us and pursuing a virtuous process that can lead us, day after day, to do more and do better. Both as individuals and as a society.

Support for Art is one of the cornerstones of the activities of the Acqua dell'Elba Foundation. To date, this commitment has consisted of two projects:

• The Acqua dell'Elba Arts Prize, promoted in partnership with the Brera Academy of Fine Arts since its launch in 2016, through which it aims to showcase the work of the most promising young art students of the Academy;
• Artists on Elba, a project to promote the work of contemporary artists through the organisation of exhibitions and the purchase of works that will go onto form the "Acqua dell'Elba Collection"
