The Prize

Bottle of Hennessy V.S Blending the Elements Limited Edition by Faith XLVII.

An organic palette fuses deep, earthy, russet hues with warm, gold and peachy sunset tones, evoking a mystical mandala. In the artwork “A Blending of Elements” by FAITH XLVII — a special commission for the 10th anniversary of the Hennessy Very Special Limited Edition cognac — an intricate layering of textures and symbols conveys a time-honored aura, conjuring the seasons, the Earth’s wisdom and the cycles of Nature. Time and the Sun are the work’s central themes, orbited by moons, clouds, rain and grapevines which are edged in precious gold leaf. It is a powerful tribute to centuries of savoir-faire in cognac making and the luxury of time required for crafting Hennessy blends, a poetically slow process that depends on the cycles of nature and phases of the Moon. “As in cognac making, the process of artistic creation is long, and each small action, each individual element, stays invisible up until the final reveal — whether it’s a painting or a bottle of Hennessy Very Special,” notes the artist.

The Cause

The Giacomo Ponzone Foundation (FGP) was set up in the memory of Giacomo Ponzone, whose life was suddenly cut short at the age of 25 due to Arrhythmogenic Cardiomyopathy, a genetic disease that is difficult to diagonose and causes sudden death in apparently healthy young people.

The Giacomo Ponzone Foundation has two important objectives. The first concerns the research and study of Arrhythmogenic Cardiomyopathy of the left ventricle, a rare cardiac pathology. The second aim is to support deserving students enrolled at the Catholic University of the Sacred Heart of Milan, in particular the Faculty of Economics and Business Management from which Giacomo graduated, to give an opportunity to students who would otherwise not have had the chance to study.
The Giacomo Ponzone Foundation has joined forces with the Monzino Cardiology Center to support study projects concerning the little known Arrhythmogenic Cardiomyopathy for which currently little can be done in terms of prevention.

This pathology is characterized by two main clinical signs: the appearance of malignant arrhythmias and the progressive replacement of healthy heart tissue with adipose tissue. Among the factors that can cause arrhythmogenic cardiomyopathy is the dysregulation of the normal calcium content in heart cells. The objectives of the first FGP project with the Monzino Cardiology Center are to:
1. understand the new calcium-dependent molecular mechanisms responsible for the disease;
2. use molecules already approved by the FDA to fight it.
