Fine Art for Jago, contemporary sculptor of international fame
FERCAM has signed a partnership agreement with Jago: our Fine Art team will take care of transporting his artworks to their various exhibition venues.
The artist has chosen to benefit from the expertise and specialist advice of the FERCAM Fine Art team that, in addition to handling transport in full safety, has mediated the relationship with various museums and supported in the definition of insurance plans.
"It is a truly prestigious collaboration", comments Chiara Prisco, Head of the Fine Art Business Unit. "We are delighted to have been able to build what we hope is the basis of a lasting partnership with an artist who not only has genuine talent and a very interesting vision, but entrepreneurial intelligence and wide awareness of his historical-social context. In our field we rarely have the opportunity to know the author of the works we transport, to collaborate in designing exhibition spaces and modes of transport".

The transport of “Pietà”
When the Fine Art team visited Jago's atelier in Naples last November, the plaster cast already heralded the touching expressiveness that the artist is extracting with surgical precision from the marble block. Jago’s “Pietà” reverses the gender roles of the classical iconography: it depicts a man holding a helpless young woman in his arms. His face, distraught, disfigured with anguish. An impressive project, a delicate and precious work, which will have to travel from the church of Sant’Aspreno to the exhibition site in Rome. To accompany the sculpture along this journey, Jago has chosen to rely on FERCAM Fine Art’s extensive know-how.
Jago, the artist who challenges the great Italian masters’ sculptural masterpieces
They called him the "new Michelangelo" and lately he has dedicated his energies to the creation of his own contemporary “Pietà”. From the Big Apple he found his way back to Italy, bringing to Naples the artworks that were already famous overseas. In the Sanità district, inside the small church of Sant'Aspreno ai Crociferi, he focuses on his latest creation, guarded by some of his previous works.
In love with the great art masters, rebellious to the precepts of the Academy, self-taught and daring: Jago is an artist who has brought to life his unequalled inspirations, by rolling up his sleeves and actively promoting his personal brand and message. A contemporary humanist, he humbly proposes himself alongside artists who had the courage to hand over their work to history, encouraging his audience to come forward and take action to leave their mark on the world too.
