White vase with stars, unique piece, 2017, glazed earthenware, 36 x 76 cm height. Unique piece signed by the artist. Andrea Salvatori (Italy, 1975) is a visual artist working in ceramics to realize ironic and witty sculptures, sometimes involving a diverse selection of found objects, such as Murano glass vases, Meissen porcelain miniatures or Ginori period ceramics sourced in flea markets around Europe. Salvatori’s works often begin with these items and add an element created by the artist, generating an unexpected semantic shift. The result is unique, encompassing pop culture and kitsch aesthetics: a witty and effective way to turn reality upside-down and at the same time a powerful combination of exquisite craftsmanship and genuine irony.
