You for Christmas
Largo Rezzara
Steven Cavagna
You for Christmas is an interactive work that receives the viewer into the scene of the Adoration of the Child (1524), in a reproduction of the panel painted by Bernardino Luini (1485-1532) and preserved at the Accademia Carrara. On the one hand, You for Christmas proposes a traditional image of the Nativity, on the other, it spreads a modern message of inclusion, because the public that rapports with the work also becomes a protagonist in the scene, in an expanded Nativity. The Nativity scene placed on a large mirror, will reflect the lights of the Piazza, creating an incredible luminous dynamism....
Fra.Mar is point of reference in the world of cleanliness and hygiene and has been evolving for over 50 years to guarantee the highest quality and sustainability standards. The Company came into being in 1970 from the idea and commitment of Francesco Maffeis in the heart of productive Lombardy. Over the years it has earned international leadership in the cleaning sector, thanks to the care and attention it pays to the customer, to its workers and to the environment.
These are the values of a company that is committed to the well-being of the community. A work practice that puts the customer at the centre, with the knowledge of how to advise them thanks to constant research and innovation, as well as decades of experience in the world of industrial, civil and environmental cleaning.
The creation of relationships of trust represents a primary objective to best interpret each request, thus also managing to offer a wide spectrum of services capable of integrating and implementing the cleaning and sanitization chain of commercial, work and civil environments.
Fra.Mar's constant commitment to training and research leads it to be one of the reference companies in the sector: from large-scale retail trade to the hospital and healthcare sector, from environmental sanitation to industrial and civil cleaning.
With a strong sense of social responsibility in its mission, Fra.Mar is present across the national territory, but with a 'Bergamasco' heart.
Sensitive to social issues, promoter of the values of sport and solidarity, attentive to territorial dynamics, Fra.Mar relates to institutions, bodies and associations to encourage community development.
The company contributes to Christmas Design 2023 with the artwork You for Christmas, commissioned to Steven Cavagna and exhibited in Largo Rezzara, in Bergamo.
Steven Cavagna, 46, of Osio Sopra, is an artist and creative person who says very little about himself and his activities, letting his works speak for him instead.
Today Cavagna frequents different art forms and uses his laboratory in Gandino as a place to meet and share with other artists and creativity-lovers. The laboratory also contains a carpentry shop and a splendid showroom used for television, advertising and sporting events.
Among his most acclaimed works in the area, the spectacular "arrivals wall" at the Bergamo bus station, with his acrylics on wood displayed on a stretch of wall 60 metres in length and three in height, VisitBergamo's project to welcome travellers. His works give personality to the interiors of the Spazio Fase in Alzano Lombardo, and also to the common spaces of the employees of Coca Cola and Just Eat in Milan.
Recently, Steven Cavagna created six installations on the concept of "taking care" within the new Fra.Mar headquarters in Pedrengo. He is always open to being inspired and his creativity knows no limits.
For Christmas Design 2023 he has created the work You for Christmas, commissioned by Fra.Mar and exhibited in Largo Rezzara.
