Sagrasse (1966) - I'm Sorry Magritte

Sagrasse (Sandro Grassetti, born in 1966) is a Marche-born artist whose life is rooted in artisanal craftsmanship. For forty years he has worked in the shadow of his workshop in a small town among the hills of Marche, specializing at the highest levels in resin processing, varnishing, and gilding.
The turning point in his life comes with the COVID-19 pandemic: the forced lockdown and the suspension of time transform into an emotional catalyst, pushing him to unleash the artistic urgency he has always harbored. What for decades had been “only” a field of excellence in technique 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.

In recent years his work has received important public and private recognitions, culminating in participation in prestigious review exhibitions. Among these, notable is the presence at the Contemporary Art Review “Arte Venezia” in 2025, the collaboration with the Centro d'Arte e Cultura VERUM, and the inclusion of his works within the renowned private collection Fuser. From craftsman to a signature name on the Neo-Pop scene, Sagrasse demonstrates how a lifetime of experience can be transformed 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 the constraint of function, putting it at the service of imagination. His works are colored mirrors in which our society is reflected: pop, bright, ironic, and irresistibly modern.
Sagrasse’s work sits perfectly in the path of New Pop Art and Urban Art. If the comparison 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.
