Description from the seller
Sagrasse (Sandro Grassetti, born in 1966) is a Marche-based artist whose life is rooted in artisanal mastery. For forty years he has worked in the shadow of his workshop in a small municipality among the hills of the Marche region, specializing at the highest levels in resin work, painting, and chroming.
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 guarded. What for decades had been “only” a technique of excellence thus becomes the means to give life to modern pop sculptures, vibrant and ironic. 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.
Title - Small puffy candy
Technique: resin and marble powder
Dimensions: 38x16x15 cm
Condition: new.
Certificate of authenticity - hand-signed.
Edition: limited edition 499 ex - gold marble
The work will be carefully packaged and shipped via courier with tracking.
In recent years his work has gained important public and private recognitions, culminating in participation in prestigious art shows. Notable among these are the presence at the Contemporary Art Exhibition “Arte Venezia” in 2025, the collaboration with VERUM Center for Art and Culture, and the inclusion of his works within the renowned Private Collection Fuser. From craftsman to a hallmark of the Neo-Pop landscape, Sagrasse demonstrates how a lifelong experience can be transformed into pure and recognized artistic expression.
Sagrasse is not simply 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, brilliant, ironic, and irresistibly modern.
Sagrasse’s work fits perfectly within the path of New Pop Art and Urban Art. If the reference to Banksy is evident for the strong satirical charge, the irony and the 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.
The object is an exclusive Sagrasse creation.
It is an artisanal work, conceived and made entirely in Italy. The small imperfections that may be found are the natural characteristic of entirely manual workmanship.
It is recommended not to expose to heat sources; clean without detergents, but only with a soft cloth.
