Good luck to our friend Marcello Crescenzi, aka Rise Above, for the live painting session at We are the Beast.

Bang Art Magazine, that focuses on the international contemporary art scene, will host the opening event for ROMA. The Road to Contemporary Art on May 26th.
LRNZ, McLane and Mariachiara Di Giorgio will paint their style side by side with Marcello, while you may feel wilder by wearing one of the spectacular paper masks crafted by Nacho Gil.

So it’s art and more, with music and a fireworks show at a night time party you shouldn’t miss!

Childhood passions and strong ideas as a background to the Rise Above project allowed him to be The Future of the Past. Let’s give a quick peep at his version.
