Fiat 500 on display at Exhibitalia in Miami

Christian Balzano takes his design inspiration to the entire body of the Fiat 500

The new Fiat 500 serves as inspiration for artists participating in Exhibitalia, a four day live exhibition running Dec 2 through the 5th in Miami, Florida, that features a selection of Italian art, design, fashion and culture and that takes place at the Art Basel in Miami. Renowned artists, as well as two student art teams from the University of Miami, use the new Fiat 500 as both inspiration and canvas.
