In parterre the president of Skira Editore, Massimo Vitta Zelman, and some of the most prestigious artists who have signed the works of the collection of art Coast: Mario Donizetti, Nathalie du Pasquier, Eloisa Gobbo, Cristina Iotti, Flavio Lucchini, Elisa Rossi, Nicola Salvatore, casagrande&recalcati, Aldo Spoldi, Carla Tolomeo.
