As the residence marks its fourth anniversary this spring, it is stepping up its activities by welcoming its first honorary board, comprising celebrated members such as gallerist Massimo Minini; Katy Hessel, founder of The Greater Woman Artist; MSGM founder and designer Massimo Giorgetti; collector Umberta Gnutti Beretta; and designer Sabine Marcelis.
