Santicri - Spinario fail

Santicri - Spinario fail

Santicri has participated in numerous internationally renowned art exhibitions. Among the most significant, in 2022 he exhibited his works at the prestigious Palazzo Grillo in Genoa, and in 2023 he was present at 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 placed among the top three most searched names on the Catawiki platform, another sign of the growing appreciation for his work. These recognitions highlight Santicri's extraordinary talent and the ever-increasing visibility in the contemporary artistic scene. Santicri-artist Technique: RESIN and marble powder Dimensions: H17 x L10 x P10 cm Condition: new Certificate of authenticity - hand-signed Edition: limited edition 100 ex The sculpture is a provocative artistic expression. This work seems to challenge conventions and traditional expectations of art, mixing ancient and modern elements in a surprising context. The choice to depict a spinario, a subject typical of classical art, in such an unusual and contemporary context suggests a reflection on our current culture and our relationship with the past. The use of Nike and the scene of the removal of the feces can be interpreted as a pointed critique of consumerism and the obsession with luxury in the modern world. The work seems to seek to provoke a reaction in the public, raising questions about its symbolism and its deeper meaning. Ultimately, this contemporary sculpture appears to be a bold comment on contemporary society, its obsession with consumption and its relationship with history and tradition. Edition limited to 100 copies. Hand-signed by the artist with certificate of authenticity the edition number shipped may not correspond to the one in the photo. The artist established himself in 2024 as one of the most sought-after names on Catawiki, immediately ranking after icons like Kaws and Banksy. His art stands out in an exclusive context that includes other categories 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 pursued a path that, between studies in Geometer and Architecture, led him to collaborate with a resin sculpture craftsman. There arose the 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 cannot be missing among collectors of paintings and sculptures of street art, pop art, contemporary art. "It is never easy to classify one's art; I try to convey what my eyes see, my way of seeing what surrounds me, and I rework it with a design that fits well with modern times: impactful and memorable."
