We are happy and deeply grateful to share with all of you an act of great generosity and artistic sensitivity: the artist Riccardo Vignati, who has long been present on ArtistaOnLine, the contemporary art portal that brings together talents and passions, has donated to ARTandCHARITY O.D.V. one of his significant works, supporting our charitable mission with heart and vision through the universal language of art.

The donated work, entitled “A star bene a metà” (2016), is an acrylic on wood with mixed technique, measuring 95 x 49 cm. Inspired by the profound song “Se tu fossi qui starei meglio” by Pino Daniele, the work delicately and intensely addresses the theme of absence, of feeling incomplete, but also of the search for balance and authentic presence. A message that resonates deeply with the values of our association, which has always promoted culture as a way to rediscover oneself, to open up to others, and to build bridges of solidarity and awareness.

Vignati's works, full of visual and symbolic strength, invited visitors to pause, observe, and question the risk of inner disconnection in an era dominated by digital connection.

With this generous gesture, Riccardo Vignati honors and inspires us. “A star bene a metà” officially becomes part of the artistic heritage of ARTandCHARITY O.D.V., and from now on will accompany our events and initiatives, bringing with it a message of beauty, introspection, and openness towards others.

On behalf of the Board and all the volunteers, we express our heartfelt thanks to Riccardo Vignati for choosing to share with us not only a work of art, but a profound part of his human and artistic journey.
Every gesture like this encourages and strengthens us: it reminds us that art, when it meets the heart, can truly become a tool for help, dialogue, and change.
