All auctions / Contemporary Art / Santicri (1992) - Boom!
Santicri has participated in numerous internationally renowned art exhibitions. Among the most significant, in 2022 he showcased his works at the prestigious Palazzo Grillo in Genoa, and in 2023 he attended the International Contemporary Furniture Fair (ICFF) in New York, thus expanding his visibility in both national and international contexts. Santicri was recognized among the Best-Selling Artists of 2024 by Artmayeur, one of the most renowned platforms in the art world. In the same year, he was also listed among the top three most searched names on the Catawiki platform, another sign of growing appreciation for his work. These recognitions highlight Santicri’s talent and increasing visibility in the contemporary art scene. Technique: resin and marble powder Dimensions: L30 x H21 x P2,5 cm Condition: new Certificate of authenticity - hand-signed “BOOM!” by Santicri reinterprets comic book pop language by transforming a graphic exclamation into a three-dimensional sculptural object. The contrast between the explosive shape and the marmoreal black-and-white creates a visual short circuit between pop lightness and classical materiality. The veins that run across the surface introduce an element of imperfection that breaks the purity of the mark, suggesting an explosion not only visual but conceptual: a fracture in the language of the image. The result is an immediate, ironic and powerful work, capable of uniting pop aesthetic, design and sculpture in a single visual impact.

INSURED SHIPPING The artist established himself in 2024 as one of the most sought-after names on Catawiki, placing himself right after icons like Kaws and Banksy. His art stands out in an exclusive context that includes other names of excellence, such as Rolex, Lego, Louis Vuitton, Porsche, Eames, Macallan, Tintin, Cartier and Pokémon. A talent recognized not only for its creative value but also as one of the most promising investments of the year. Born in 1992 in Macerata, Marche, the Italian artist followed a path that, between studies in Geometra (surveying) and Architecture, led him to collaborate with a resin sculpture artisan. There arose the ever-stronger need to find himself and unleash his creativity. His works are sold worldwide, collaborating with galleries in Italy and Europe. His art is widely appreciated and is a must-have among collectors of street art, pop art, and contemporary art paintings and sculptures. "It is never easy to classify one’s art; I try to convey what my eyes see, my way of perceiving what surrounds me, and I reshape it with a design that fits modern times: impactful and memorable."
