Art passed through generations
From 1900 to 1930 the grounds were an open-air space cinema and theatre. The building was then constructed by Annibale’s grandfather in 1947 and since then it has been the home of the Oste family. Since 1980 the ground floor has hosted the art studio where the creations of Annibale Oste were born , a renowned artist and sculptor, poet, passionate about the cultural stratifications of history as well as the new and unexplored, he manages to amaze through continuous experimentations. Studying, trying and discovering, he combines together the new and traditional materials, the artisan techniques with the industrial ones, giving a shape to memories and fantastic stories.
Vincenzo, the son of Annibale, an esteemed jewel designer and artist . He was trained as a designer craftsman, mainly looking at his father as a reference, as a source of inspiration and the first teacher from whom to learn . In addition to the experiences gained in art and goldsmiths schools, it was his father to reveal to Vincenzo the deepest sense of creativity.
