COSTA CROCIERE |
Since 1998 Bixio has been encharged by Costa Crociere of the decoration of the
ships of its passenger fleet, including the most recent, modern and elegant
liners. These are true floating holiday villages, thought for relax and
entertainment, cared for in every detail. Saloons, cabins and corridors are
enriched by numberless art works: paintings, pictures, sculptures, glass walls
by Italian and foreign artists turn the ships into refined, permanent art
galleries.
