Sagrasse (1966) - Piece of Art

Sagrasse (Sandro Grassetti, born in 1966) is a Marche-based artist whose life is rooted in artisanal mastery. For forty years he has worked in the shadows of his workshop in a small municipality among the hills of the Marche region, specializing at the highest levels in resin processing, varnishing and chrome plating. The turning point of his life comes with the COVID-19 pandemic: the forced lockdown and the suspension of time become an emotional catalyst, pushing him to unleash the artistic urgency he had always kept inside. What for decades had been "only" a technique of excellence thus becomes the means to give life to modern, vibrant and ironic pop sculptures. Today Sagrasse has transformed his artisan know-how into a recognized language of contemporary art, proving that it is never too late to give voice to one’s most authentic talent. Sagrasse - Piece of art Hand-signed 2024 Technique: resin and marble powder Dimensions: 54x27x5 cm Condition: new. Certificate of authenticity - hand-signed. Edition: limited edition 499 ex - vermeer The artwork will be carefully packaged and shipped by courier with tracking. In recent years, his work has received important public and private recognitions, culminating in participation in prestigious exhibitions. Among these, notable appearances include the Contemporary Art Exhibition "Arte Venezia" in 2025, the collaboration with the VERUM Center of Art and Culture, and the inclusion of his works within the renowned Private Collection Fuser. From craftsman to a signature of the Neo-Pop scene, Sagrasse demonstrates how a lifetime of experience can transform into pure and recognized artistic expression. Sagrasse is not simply an artist who uses resin; he is a master craftsman who has freed the technique from the constraint of function, putting it at the service of imagination. His works are colored mirrors in which our society is reflected: pop, brilliant, ironic and irresistibly modern. Sagrasse’s work aligns with the trajectory of New Pop Art and Urban Art. If the association with Banksy is evident for the strong satirical charge, irony and the ability to reinterpret icons of everyday life or pop culture in a critical key, Sagrasse’s universe closely dialogues with other giants of the international scene such as Jeff Koons, KAWS, Takashi Murakami, Mr. Brainwash, Richard Orlinski. The object is an exclusive Sagrasse creation. It is a handmade artwork, conceived and entirely made in Italy. The small imperfections that may be found are the natural characteristic of entirely manual workmanship. It is recommended not to expose to heat sources; clean without using detergents, but only a soft cloth.
