Matteo Thun’s iconic illy espresso cup has been given a new lease of life: as a blank canvas for contemporary artists from all over the globe. The result is the illy Art Collection, coffee cups that are signed, numbered objects d’art, the expression of illy’s love for art and the ideals of good, goodness and beauty.
