M.Capella and P.Cucco (edited by), Versace. The fashion and art genius, Mazzotta, 2006

The catalogue presents a selection of costumes drawn by Versace, related to some valuable works of art. The exhibition is part of the project “Art & Fashion” aimed at capturing the mutual influences, the similarities in form and style which have been established between the world of fashion and artistic creation since ancient times.
Catalogue of the exhibition held at the Mazzucchelli Museums from 5th May 2005 - 29th October 2006. Text in Italian and English.

“By effective, immediate references to comparisons between garments and works, it is possible to positively prove what Gianni Versace confirmed with his own work, that is, that fashion is art and art collaborates with fashion”.
Massimiliano Capella.
