Santicri has participated in numerous art exhibitions of international standing. Among the most significant, in 2022 he exhibited 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 the growing appreciation for his work. These recognitions highlight the extraordinary talent and the ever-greater visibility of Santicri in the contemporary art scene. Santicri Mixed media Measurements: 90x50x15 cm The work is accompanied by a certificate of authenticity handwritten Unique Work This work arises from a simple tension: what happens when a historical image ceases to be untouchable? The classical painting is “opened,” traversed by a faucet that does not add but subtracts. It is not a decorative gesture: it is a cut in time. The image no longer remains still, but transforms into a flow. The drop is not just matter; it is memory sliding away. The past does not disappear, but changes state: from icon to liquid. The piece does not pit ancient against contemporary. It forces them to coexist in the same point, at the same instant. It is not a quotation, it is a transformation. The artwork will be shipped insured and carefully packed. the drop is shipped separately from the faucet, to be screwed onto the faucet (by hand), in order to ensure safer shipping. The canvas work 350 g is mounted on a wooden frame, the faucet is iron, the drop is resin with an iron core, frame not included. SHIPPED INSURED! The package is carefully packed, The artist established himself in 2024 as one of the most sought-after names on Catawiki, placing himself immediately after icons such as 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 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 of Geometer and Architecture, led him to collaborate with a resin sculpture craftsman. There arose the growing 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 street art and sculpture, pop art, contemporary art. "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 harmonizes with modern times: impactful and memorable."
