Sagrasse (1966) - ESCAPE - small

Sagrasse (Sandro Grassetti, born in 1966) is a Marchean artist whose life has roots in artisanal craftsmanship. For forty years he has worked in the shadows of his workshop in a small town among the hills of Marche, specializing at the highest levels in resin processing, painting, and electroplating. 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 guarded. What for decades had been simply a technique of excellence thus becomes the means to give life to modern, vibrant, and ironic pop sculptures. Today Sagrasse has transformed his know-how as a craftsman into a recognized language of contemporary art, proving that it is never too late to give voice to one’s most authentic talent. Title - ESCAPE luxury - small resin - Hand-signed 2026 Technique: resin Dimensions: 25x15.5x15.5 cm Condition: new. Certificate of authenticity - hand-signed Edition - limited edition - 299 ex luxury color white The artwork will be carefully packed and shipped via courier with tracking. In recent years his work has earned important public and private recognitions, culminating in participation in prestigious exhibitions. Among these are the presence at the Contemporary Art Exhibition "Arte Venezia" in 2025, the collaboration with the Center for Art and Culture VERUM, and the inclusion of his works within the renowned Private Collection Fuser. From craftsman to a signature of the Neo-Pop landscape, Sagrasse shows how a lifetime of experience can be transformed 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 its functional constraints, putting it at the service of imagination. His works are colorful mirrors in which our society reflects itself: pop, brilliant, ironic, and irresistibly modern. Sagrasse’s work fits perfectly within the path of New Pop Art and Urban Art. While the association with Banksy is evident for its strong satirical charge, irony, and ability to reinterpret everyday icons 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 an artisanal work, conceived and made entirely in Italy. The small imperfections that may be found are the natural characteristic of entirely handmade craftsmanship. It is advisable not to expose to heat sources; clean only with a soft cloth, avoiding detergents.
