acrylic on canvas, cm 141x106 signed, titled and dated on the back on the back: Ducati Ducati Motor & Cambi Auctions for #RaceAgainstCOVID Ducati Motor Holding launched a challenge to its entire com- munity in May 2020: #RaceAgainstCOVID, a fundraiser organ- ized by the Borgo Panigale company whose goal is to raise the necessary funds to finance equipment, research and staff of the Policlinico di Sant’Orsola in Bologna dedicated exclusively to the care of patients in post Covid-19 convalescence. The members of the Ducati Board started off the collection of funds, followed by many other employees. The sum collected was then doubled by the company, reaching the amount of 100,000 euros, the start- ing point for #RaceAgainstCOVID. The Borgo Panigale company is now continuing its challenge thanks to the contribution of Jisbar: for this initiative the French artist has in fact created the work Mona Lisa Ducati, a unique painting of Pop Art dedicated to the passion for the iconic Italian brand, requesting that the en- tire proceeds from the auctioning of his work be donated to the Sant’Orsola Hospital in Bologna. Ducati has found in Cambi an ideal partner in the front line against Covid-19 after the great success achieved with the Bene ca De- sign Loves Milano auction, which raised 120,000 euros for the Sacco Hospital in Milan.
