Gianfranco Meggiato (Venice, 1963) is a contemporary sculptor exploring space, matter, and consciousness. Inspired by 20th-century masters, his works use void as a core element, shaping his concept of “introsculpture.” He has exhibited internationally since 1998 (Venice Biennale, Manifesta 12) and, since 2017, has led projects connected to UNESCO sites, earning the ICOMOS-UNESCO Prize.

Andrea Cagnetti, known as Akelo (from Acheloos, the Greek god of waters), is an Italian sculptor, designer, and goldsmith, recognized as a leading expert in ancient jewelry. Born in 1967 in Corchiano, he develops a language that blends ancient techniques with a contemporary vision, inspired by art, spirituality, and ancient thought.

Eugenio Galli (Seregno, 1951) lives and works in his hometown. Since the late 1990s, his research has focused on light as a central element, developing an abstract language that culminates in the concept of “Transcendence.”

Vittorio Menditto is an artist who, after a motorcycle accident in 2006, lives with tetraplegia. During his rehabilitation at Montecatone Hospital (Imola), he began painting, gradually developing a personal visual language through different painting techniques.

Since 2018, he has developed a contemporary practice combining concrete, wood, steel, and pigments in abstract sculptures and paintings that explore contrasts between industry and nature, strength and fragility.
