AI-assisted summary

Description from the seller

Sagrasse (Sandro Grassetti, born in 1966) is a Marche-based artist whose life is rooted in artisanal craftsmanship. For forty years he worked in the shadow of his workshop in a small municipality among the hills of Marche, specializing at the highest levels in resin processing, painting, and chrome finishing.

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 nurtured. What for decades had been merely a technique of excellence becomes the means to give life to modern, vibrant, and ironic pop sculptures. Today Sagrasse has transformed his artisanal know-how into a language of contemporary art, proving that it is never too late to give voice to one’s most authentic talent.

Title - Banana Mmmh
Signed handwritten - - 2022
Technique: resin
Dimensions: 26x26x6
Condition: new.
Certificate of authenticity - handwritten signature.
Edition: limited edition 999ex - blue/gold

The work will be carefully boxed and shipped with a tracking courier.

In recent years his work has earned important public and private recognitions, culminating in participation in prestigious exhibitions. Notable among these are his presence at the Contemporary Art Exhibition "Arte Venezia" in 2025, collaborations with the Centro d'Arte e Cultura VERUM, and the inclusion of his works in the renowned Private Collection Fuser. From craftsman to signature of the Neo-Pop panorama, Sagrasse demonstrates how a lifetime of experience can be transformed into pure and acknowledged artistic expression.

Sagrasse is not merely an artist who uses resin; he is a master artisan 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, brilliant, ironic, and irresistibly modern.

Sagrasse’s work fits perfectly within the vein of New Pop Art and Urban Art. If the comparison to Banksy is evident for its strong satirical charge, irony, and the ability to reinterpret icons of everyday life or pop culture in a critical key, Sagrasse’s universe closely dialogues with other titans of the international scene such as Jeff Koons, KAWS, Takashi Murakami, Mr. Brainwash, Richard Orlinski.

The object is an exclusive Sagrasse creation.
It is a handmade work, conceived and produced entirely in Italy. The small imperfections that may be found are the natural characteristic of entirely manual processing.
It is recommended not to expose to heat sources; clean without detergents, but only with a soft cloth."
