AI-assisted summary

Description from the seller

Sagrasse (Sandro Grassetti, born in 1966) is an artist from the Marche region whose life is rooted in skilled 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 enforced shutdown and suspension of time became an emotional catalyst, prompting him to unleash the artistic urge he had always harbored. What for decades had been “just” an exceptional technique thus became the means to create vibrant, ironic modern pop sculptures. Today, Sagrasse has transformed his craft into a recognized contemporary art language, proving that it is never too late to give voice to one’s most authentic talent.

Title - Devil rock
Technique: resin and marble powder
Dimensions: 28x20x12 cm
Condition: new.
Certificate of authenticity - hand-signed.
Edition: limited edition 499 ex - gold

Message and interpretation: “Devil Rock” invites us to consider the playful and humorous side of life. The artist wanted to emphasize the importance of lightening the spirit and finding enjoyment even in the most ordinary, everyday situations. The heart reimagined in a devilish style could be interpreted as an exploration of human duality, showing how opposing aspects can coexist within each of us.
Context and inspiration: Sagrasse drew inspiration from a playful spirit to create “Devil Rock,” seeking to bring a smile to viewers’ faces and invite them not to take everything too seriously. The work reflects a desire to explore the contrast between love and evil, finding a balance between the two through a provocative and visually compelling artistic expression.

The artwork will be carefully packed and shipped by courier with tracking.

In recent years, his work has received significant public and private recognition, culminating in his participation in prestigious exhibitions. Highlights include his presence at the “Arte Venezia” Contemporary Art Exhibition in 2025, his collaboration with the VERUM Art and Culture Center, and the inclusion of his works in the renowned Fuser Private Collection. From craftsman to a recognized name in the Neo-Pop scene, Sagrasse shows how a lifetime of experience can become a pure and acclaimed artistic expression.
Sagrasse is not simply an artist who uses resin; he is a master craftsman who has freed the technique from the constraints of function, putting 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 because of its strong satirical edge, irony, and ability to reinterpret icons of everyday life or pop culture with a critical perspective, Sagrasse’s world is closely connected with other giants of the international scene such as Jeff Koons, KAWS, Takashi Murakami, Mr. Brainwash, and Richard Orlinski.

The object is an exclusive Sagrasse creation.
It is a handcrafted work, conceived and made
entirely in Italy. The small imperfections that may
be present are a natural feature of entirely handmade
production.
Avoid exposing it to heat sources; clean without
using detergents, using only a soft cloth.
