Pop and Street Art on the Milan Stock Exchange!
A leader in Pop and Street Art, Deodato Arte has brought to Italy the artworks of important international contemporary artists such as Mr. Brainwash and Romero Britto, but it has also believed in Italian artists such as Mr. Savethewall, José Molina and Daniele Fortuna.
From the beginning Deodato Arte has also invested in digital and technology for cutting-edge offerings. In addition to its nine galleries, it has constantly updated social channels, the first e-commerce for art in Italy, and a space in the Metaverse.
The listing ceremony
For the listing ceremony Mr. Savethewall invaded Piazza Affari with his iconic frogs in businessman clothes and style.
And in addition to being the first listing of the year on the Milan Stock Exchange, it was also the first to take place in the Metaverse, streamed thanks to the platform Lieu.City.
A bit of history
Deodato Arte is a project of Deodato Salafia that began to take shape in 2010 with the opening of the first gallery and was consolidated in 2015 with the founding of Deodato.Gallery s.r.l.
Transparency, quality and accessibility are the values that gave birth to a new way of approaching the art world. Exposed prices, a storytelling that speaks to everyone and a technological vocation clashed with a closed, snobbish world. But Deodato Arte did not give up: new venues were opened throughout Italy and abroad, new websites, and investments were made in technology. In 2020, Wunderkammern Gallery (Rome/Milan) was acquired, and in 2022 Love Spot Galleries, a franchise network of art galleries, was founded.
Thus was born a complex ecosystem that gives shape to the DEODATO Group and culminates in early 2023 precisely in the listing on the stock exchange and the birth of Deodato.Gallery S.p.A.
