The choice of the name “Artgender” derives from the consideration for which the brand that identifies a particular company that operates in the sectors of event planning, publishing and communication has never been used; for us art is a real type of human being, that is, who is deeper. Does not exclude anyone but renames a category, composed of very different people within… elsewhere I think, origin and direction; but, united by a single factor: the artistic one. Anyone can be or feel like an artist as long as he is concerned with producing or simply approaching any form of expression. Our identity is necessary, in things, in people, in words, in ways… that teaching contributes to formation ‘individual evolution.

‣ They were accidentally found only in the 1970s during an underwater dive in the sea of an inexperienced young man at a depth of 10 meters and 300 meters from the coast of “Riace”.

‣ They are the greatest example of mastery of Greek sculptors of the classical age, works that date back as far as the 5th century BC but which have been preserved in excellent condition. Unfortunately, however, it’s not possible to trace the authors and precise dating.
