In the first, the works of four artists who are part of the Artrust stable will be the protagonists: Andrea Ravo Mattoni, Aymone Poletti and Raul, who with the Melano gallery have exhibited in collective and personal exhibitions and attended numerous national and international fairs, with the ‘addition of Sirinat Kasikam, who in addition to being a young emerging artist has also been an integral part of the Artrust team for over four years.

The works on display were mostly made by the four artists in the months of forced confinement of the quarantine and lockdown. From the great classics revisited in spray by Ravo, to the elegant engravings by Aymone Poletti, from the instinctive signs of Raul to the meditative compositions of Sirinat Kasikam, we will be able to see in the works of these artists the signs of the sudden and forced change with which 2020 forced everyone us to do the math.
