Description from the seller

Free shipping across Europe

"It's not a game" is a contemporary sculpture created by the artistic duo Francioni Mastromarino. The work depicts a bronze bowling ball with continents in relief, transforming it into a globe. A symbolic interpretation that fuses two images: the Earth, with the ball's three characteristic holes, and the game itself.

This piece was chosen to be published in the prestigious trade magazine The Art Book, within the special issue dedicated to provocation in contemporary art.

The sculpture tackles the issue of climate change, sending a clear message: the Earth is not a game. The authors denounce the United States' behavior regarding climate agreements, highlighting the risk of treating climate change and the protection of our only planet with superficiality.

The sculpture was cast in bronze using the lost-wax casting technique.

A sculpture with a strong visual and ethical impact, perfect for those who want a work of art that makes you reflect on the future of our world.

The work is the result of the synergy of two artists, Francioni and Mastromarino, a couple of art and love who have worked together for over 20 years in their Pietrasanta-based studio in Tuscany.

The chosen materials minimize environmental pollution, as does the use of cardboard scraps as packing filler. The sculpture is carefully packed in a very sturdy box and shipped by express courier. All of our collectors are very satisfied with the robustness of our packaging.

With our sculptures we are present in private collections in the Netherlands, Belgium, Germany, Luxembourg, Spain, France, Portugal, Denmark, Austria, USA, Switzerland, Romania, the United Kingdom, Poland, Finland, Greece and Italy.

For shipments outside the European Union, the sculpture will be accompanied by a certificate of free export for contemporary art works, which will be stamped and validated by the exports office of the Florence Fine Arts Superintendence, part of the Ministry of Culture.

Regarding shipments to Germany, we are registered with the German LUCID registry to ensure proper disposal of packaging. We commit to complying with environmental regulations and contributing to reducing environmental impact.

Whether the sculpture is shipped outside the European Union or to Germany, we ensure that all necessary documents are provided and that the procedures required are followed to guarantee a safe and legal delivery.
