The hand-painted special, created through the brand’s Fuoriserie programme, is one of the headline attractions at this year’s three-day classic-car event.
The car sits beside the ACI Storico stand at the show and is the focus of a talk titled “Art Car: when design meets the automobile.”

A one-off creation
While the MC20 lineup has seen several evolutions, including the more extreme MCPURA variant showcased at Goodwood earlier this year, the “Opera d’Arte” takes a very different route. Instead of chasing more speed or sharper dynamics, Maserati’s Fuoriserie division used the car as a blank page for artistic experimentation.
It follows other design-led specials, but this particular model stands apart for the intensity of its concept and the amount of manual craftsmanship involved.

Over a year of artisan effort
Maserati’s design, engineering, and Fuoriserie teams spent more than twelve months developing the “Opera d’Arte”. The entire exterior was painted by hand, with abstract patterns inspired by early modern art movements. Each stroke and colour placement was deliberately chosen, turning the MC20 Cielo into a true rolling artwork rather than a conventional special edition.
The palette is nothing short of unique, too. Fifteen custom-formulated colours, including neon-like yellow, rich orange, and punchy greens. These tones shift from panel to panel, creating a mix of contrasts and transitions that you’d expect on a canvas, not a supercar.
Inside, the same artistic influence continues. The lower dashboard carries hand-applied accents, while the seats feature laser-engraved Alcantara. Carbon-fibre inserts and leather finishes balance the expressive elements, and even the wheels get their own graphic touches to tie everything together.

Part of a larger push
The debut of the “Opera d’Arte” also shines a light on Maserati and Alfa Romeo’s new joint effort under the banner of “BOTTEGAFUORISERIE.” The project brings together craftsmanship centres, design studios, restoration specialists, and performance developers across Italy’s extended “Motor Valley”, from Modena to Turin and Arese.
