UltraPOP at Spazio CEC: contemporary Pop Art and creative connections

Spazio CEC in Perugia hosted UltraPOP, an event focused on contemporary Pop Art that blended exhibition, dialogue and networking opportunities. The project prioritized interaction between artists, communication professionals and audiences, making the gallery an immersive environment rather than a conventional display space.

Featured artists

The event highlighted the works of Stefano Bolcato and Sante Muro. Bolcato uses LEGO bricks as a visual and conceptual tool, reinterpreting iconic imagery into modular micro-structures. Muro presents emotionally charged paintings that merge classical portraiture, contemporary color schemes and pop references, creating works that navigate collective memory and current imagination.

Format and aims

UltraPOP is conceived as a format that leverages cultural publishing, events and design to boost artists' visibility and cultural positioning. During the event, Spazio CEC acted as a creative hub, hosting informal exchanges between creatives, cultural operators and the public to foster new professional connections.
