Sagrasse (1966) - Butter Gold

Sagrasse (Sandro Grassetti, born in 1966) is an artist from the Marche region whose life is rooted in the mastery of craftsmanship. For forty years, he worked behind the scenes in his workshop in a small town among the hills of the Marche, specializing at the highest level in resin processing, painting, and chrome plating.
The turning point in his life came with the COVID-19 pandemic: the forced lockdown and the suspension of time became an emotional catalyst, prompting him to release the artistic urge he had always kept within him. What for decades had been “just” an outstanding technique thus became the means of bringing modern, vibrant, and ironic pop sculptures to life. Today, Sagrasse has transformed his craftsmanship into a recognized contemporary art language, proving that it is never too late to give voice to one’s most authentic talent.

In recent years, his work has received significant public and private recognition, culminating in his participation in prestigious exhibitions. These include the 2025 Contemporary Art Exhibition “Arte Venezia,” his collaboration with the VERUM Art and Culture Center, and the inclusion of his works in the renowned Fuser Private Collection. From artisan to a recognized name in the Neo-Pop scene, Sagrasse shows how a lifetime of experience can be transformed into pure, acclaimed artistic expression.
Sagrasse is not simply an artist who uses resin; he is a master craftsman who has freed the medium from the constraints of function and placed it at the service of imagination. His works are colorful mirrors reflecting our society: pop, brilliant, ironic, and irresistibly modern.
Sagrasse’s work fits perfectly within the traditions of New Pop Art and Urban Art. While the comparison with Banksy is evident in its strong satirical edge, irony, and ability to reinterpret everyday or pop culture icons critically, Sagrasse’s universe is also in close dialogue with other giants of the international scene, such as Jeff Koons, KAWS, Takashi Murakami, Mr. Brainwash, and Richard Orlinski.
