Mauro Patrini (Pizzighettone, 1965).
He has enhanced his training by acquiring knowledge and skills in various fields, from fresco to marmorino, from casting to stucco and seminato. He later specialized in the technique of scagliola/stucco marmo.
He collaborated with a research group in Brussels on the experimentation of materials for green building and sustainable decoration. He has become a teacher of scagliola/stucco marmo, firmly convinced that this technique must be passed on to ensure the training of skilled artisans capable of preserving the artistic and artisanal heritage both nationally and internationally.
He has also transformed traditional techniques into an expressive medium, reinterpreting them in a contemporary light, experimenting with various forms and materials aimed at evoking tactile and visual sensations in the observer, allowing thoughts, ideas, and emotions to flow through an invisible thread that connects the past, present, and future.
His works are part of significant collections.

As a craftsman, he has been entrusted with important commissions both in Italy and abroad, such as the reconstruction of the flooring of the Coffee House at the Quirinale Palace and the restoration of the coat of arms of Casa Lancellotti in Piazza Navona, Rome, for Christie’s auction house. He also completed extensive decorations for a private villa in West Palm Beach, commissioned by the New York architect Peter Marino, worked on the completion of the scagliola in Queen Anne’s summer apartments at the Louvre Museum in Paris, and restored the stucco marmo decorations of Palais Clam-Gallas in Vienna.
