Milano 74B 3

2501, (Jacopo Ceccarelli, Milan, 1981) is among the most important Italian artists of the current Urban Art scene. His exhibitions, both personal and collective, were hosted by important museums such as MACRO in Rome, La Triennale di Milano, Museo Pecci in Prato, La Reggia di Caserta and the Foundation Edward De Valle in Santo Domingo. In 2017 he won a residency at the Gallery Libertad Queretaro in Mexico and exhibited during Miami Art Basel with an installation of the project LA MACCHINA. In 2015 he participated to “Urban Art Renaissance”, a group exhibition presented at the Fabbrica del Vapore in Milan and in 2013 he exhibited at the 55th edition of the Venice Biennale with an official satellite event: Back 2 Back.

Jacopo Ceccarelli has matured his style by coming in contact with the South American school of Street Art. After this experience he changed his name to 2501 to indicate, with his date of birth, his artistic renaissance. His eclectic production is characterized by a recognizable style, formed by black and white sinuous lines, sometimes accompanied by golden or silver circles. However, for the artist, style is only an instrument, what really matters is the concept and the gestures.
