The kind of puffy you're happy to wake up to.

Moncler has partnered with online art marketplace, Artsy, in an exclusive benefit auction inspired by the label's 2 Moncler 1952 collection and coordinated with Mondogenius events. Curated by creative director Sergio Zambon, Moncler collaborated with artists Erwin Wurm, Andrea Anastasio, and Prem Sahib to reimagine the Moncler identity into everyday objects. 

Instant Message, the one-day Mondogenius exhibition showcasing pieces such as Erwin Wurm's "Fat Mini" Car to Andrea Anastasio's "Pillow V", is Zambon's first foray into exhibit curation. In an homage to his creative process, the artists and pieces recontextualize items "turned on their heads, just like the purpose of the duvet is constantly twisted and turned at Moncler." The puffy pieces, which integrate jackets, down, and mountaineering cords, are available through auction on Artsy. 

Pieces range from $2,500 to $700,000. 

The 2 Moncler 1952 M by Sergio Zambon: Benefit Auction 2021 is accepting bids through Artsy until October 11.

All proceeds benefit Free The Work, a non-profit promoting diversity and workplace inclusion of BIPOC within the television, film, and advertisement sectors.
