The Prize

"Milan Campione d'Italia" banknote by Gabriele Salvatore.

Take home this rare banknote celebrating Milan Campione d'Italia in pop style created by the artist Gabriele Salvatore using mixed technique on a digital base finished by hand and then printed on special paper. The work created in only 19 copies in the world (the same number of the AC Milan shields) bears the original signature of the artist on the back.

Over the years the artist has been invited to complete artistic collaborations involving celebrities including Tony Hadley, Paul Young, the Poohs, Morgan, Vittorio Sgarbi, Tony Esposito and the 1982 world cup champions, to name a few.

In 2013 he was selected to exhibit at the Florence Biennale. In 2016 he took part in a fringe event at the Architecture Biennale in Venice and was featured in the official catalog with a work created on double-layer painted plexiglass plates.

Also in 2016 Salvatore understood an important project lasting over a year, which consisted of fifty paintings dedicated to the fifty years of the music group the Poohs, who signed the works on a numbered certificate in progressive order. In 2018 he created and presented "Videoart", a collective exhibition of various works projected on maxi screens during a musical format entitled "The time machine".

The Cause

History Life Onlus was born out of a group of young volunteers’ passion for history and culture.

Our belief is that knowledge is the heritage of us all and that every one of us should know his/her own past in order to become a better version of himself/herself.

At the center of our activities are the protection, promotion and enhancement of culture and art in all of their forms and expressions. To this end, one of our main goals for 2017 is to create a fund for scholarships for deserving but economically disadvantaged students.

We believe that knowledge is a right of everyone: every citizen of the world should have the possibility to access it, independently from his/her economic situation, because only instruction makes men truly free.
