Sagrasse (1966) - Back to 1500

Sagrasse (Sandro Grassetti, born in 1966) is a Marche-born artist whose life sinks its roots into artisanal craftsmanship. For forty years he has worked in the shadows of his workshop in a small municipality among the hills of Marche, specializing at the highest levels in resin processing, varnishing, and chroming.
The turning point of his life arrives 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 merely a technique of excellence thus becomes the means to give life to modern, vibrant, and ironic pop sculptures. Today Sagrasse has transformed his artisanal 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.

In recent years his work has earned important public and private recognitions, culminating in participation in prestigious exhibitions. Among them are the presence at the Contemporary Art Exhibition "Arte Venezia" in 2025, the collaboration with the VERUM Art and Culture Center, and the inclusion of his works within the renowned Private Collection Fuser. From artisan to signature of the Neo-Pop scene, Sagrasse demonstrates how a lifetime of experience can transform into pure and recognized artistic expression.

Sagrasse is not merely an artist who uses resin; he is a master craftsman who has freed the technique from functional constraints, 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 sits perfectly in the wake of New Pop Art and Urban Art. While the comparison to Banksy is evident for the strong satirical charge, irony, and 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.
