Catawiki’s goal is to make special objects universally available. Our weekly auctions feature thousands of unusual, rare, and exceptional objects you won’t find in just any store. Lorenzo Crivellaro (Milan, 1961) is an Italian artist, designer, and advertising agent.
A versatile character, Lorenzo Crivellaro is a painter who has always been fascinated by the combination of manual skills and creativity. This led him to a continuous experimentation of styles, subjects, and materials, until he found a balance that he matured and then stabilised in his most recent works.
Crivellaro’s unique works and art prints, with clearly recognisable Pop Art influences, are a tribute to the everyday life of a calming and serene past, where Carosello characters, historic brands, products, comics, and icons of an early (and we could say “innocent”) consumerism come back to life, like sweet and never placated memories of who was a child at the time; in fact, the generation to which this Milanese artist belongs lived in a world where the media bombardment did not exist, and advertising discreetly accompanied everyone’s life.
The artist’s name is often associated with the original representations of Coca-Cola in art: the sugary drink is the product par excellence, and the advertising connected to it is a real aesthetic heritage shared by numerous generations in as many countries. For this ability to review so well known and appreciated subjects in a contemporary style, Crivellaro is much beloved by the public, and his works are exhibited in many galleries, therefore his prices are on the rise.
