What Giulia can offer for your evening
Tell her what you are looking for, she suggests one option or several, and the evening is built with you.
During the evening
The canvas of the evening, and the words of your guests: Giulia paints the venue that hosts you live, and each guest comes and writes whatever they like on the canvas — a word, a name, a signature. The company keeps a painted guest book with the date of the evening on it. From 900 €.
Watercolour portraits of the guests: alone, as a couple or as a team, each guest leaves with their own the same evening, and everyone can have a turn. From 1 200 €.
The canvas painted by your teams: each team paints one part, Giulia links the pieces and holds the composition, and the whole ends up as a single image on your wall. It is the seminar format. From 900 €.
The logo, the product or the winner’s name, painted by hand: Giulia also studied graphic design at the Brera Academy. She draws the lettering by hand and builds the canvas in the colours of the house, and a winner’s name can be painted during the ceremony and handed over on stage. Included in the canvas of the evening, from 900 €.
The piano and painting show: Orlando plays, Giulia paints on stage, and the painting is revealed on the last note. She can also paint the canvas upside down and turn it round at the end, if you want the piece of theatre. Quoted on request.
Before and after
The poster for the evening, painted by hand: the invitation, the poster or the programme, painted by hand, then laid out and delivered print-ready. Giulia signed the poster for the 83rd Open d’Italia. From 700 €.
A mural in your offices: what your guests watched come to life one evening can stay on a wall, at reception, in a meeting room or in the canteen. Painted with a brush, in odourless acrylic: the place stays open while she works. From 150 € per sqm.
What a live painting brings to an evening in Marseille
Marseille has the second congress estate in France after Paris, and its evenings often end facing the sea. A painter at work gives those hours a meeting point: guests come over between courses, they admire, they take photographs, and the canvas moves forward in front of them until the speech.
Giulia paints the bay and the islands, Notre-Dame-de-la-Garde seen from the room, the façade of the venue that hosts you, the brand motif or the high point of the evening. The signed canvas stays with the company, with the date on it.
In practice, for a company in Marseille
Send the date, the venue and the number of guests: Giulia replies within 48 hours with a free quote, itemised line by line so it goes straight into a budget, and an invoice in the company name. Two complimentary sketches go out before the evening, so the management or the agency can approve the subject.
She speaks Italian, French, English and Spanish, and she works to your agency’s running order, minute by minute: the moment of the speech, the moment of dessert, the moment the canvas is revealed. She paints in odourless acrylic, and the room stays in use while she works.
Event venues in Marseille
Giulia travels to the city’s event venues: the Parc Chanot, seventeen hectares, seven halls and fifty thousand square metres of modular space, two auditoriums from two hundred to one thousand two hundred seats, some fifteen conference rooms and a Palais des Événements sized for one thousand six hundred to three thousand two hundred participants; and the Palais du Pharo, almost seven thousand square metres in a five-hectare park above the entrance to the Old Port, two Napoleon III salons for one hundred and two hundred people, twelve rooms from twenty to three hundred, a nine-hundred-seat auditorium and one thousand eight hundred square metres of exhibition space.
She also travels to Aubagne, Cassis, La Ciotat, Martigues, Vitrolles, Marignane, Allauch, Carry-le-Rouet, Gémenos, Salon-de-Provence, Aix-en-Provence and Arles.
Your questions, before booking
Can Giulia paint outdoors, facing the sea?
Yes, and the late afternoon light over the bay is beautiful. She needs a square of about two metres by two, a power socket and an easel set out of the mistral. Acrylic dries quickly, so the canvas leaves the same evening, signed. From 900 €.
Can the guests write on the canvas?
Yes. Giulia paints the large canvas during the evening — the bay, the room or your brand motif — and your guests come and write what they like on it. The company keeps a painted, dated guest book that stays on the wall. Giulia keeps the composition in hand so the result holds together. From 900 €.
Can she come for a two-day seminar?
Yes. She can paint on the first evening in front of the participants and leave the canvas on show the next day, or paint a large format across a full day, from 2 400 €. What goes on the canvas is chosen beforehand, on the two complimentary sketches, with the management or the agency.
How much does live painting cost for a company evening?
From €900 for a live performance, and the length is decided with you: twenty minutes during a speech, an hour at the drinks reception, or the whole evening. Portraits of your guests, sketched during the evening, start at €1,200. A large format or a full day starts at €2,400. Giulia Dal Bon sends a free quote within 48 hours, itemised line by line so it slots into a budget, with an invoice made out to the company.
What exactly does the company receive?
The canvas, signed, handed over the same evening, and the invoice made out to the company, itemised line by line. If you wish, Giulia also paints the company name or logo into the composition.
What happens to the painting after the evening?
It stays with the company. Many hang it in reception or in a meeting room: it is the trace of the evening, and everyone who was there recognises it. It can also be given to a departing director, handed to a client, auctioned for a charity, or drawn among the guests. Giulia signs it if you wish.
Can the logo or the brand colours go into the painting?
Yes. Giulia also studied graphic design at the Brera Academy: she draws the lettering by hand and builds the canvas around the company’s colours. The logo can appear painted, or stay out and let the palette speak. It is decided beforehand, on the two complimentary sketches, with your management or your agency.
Can the team take part?
Yes, and it works well at a seminar: everyone adds a brushstroke, or each team paints a section that Giulia then ties together. She keeps hold of the composition so the result stands up. Tell her how many people and how much time you have, and she adapts.
What does Giulia need on site?
A square of about two metres by two, a power socket and some light. She arrives with her easel, her canvases and her paints, protects the floor around her and leaves with her own equipment. The acrylic she uses dries fast, so the canvas leaves the same evening.
Where has Giulia already painted live?
At the Fabbrica del Vapore in Milan, for Play Green, she painted live alongside the illustrator Francesco Barcella, on a reclaimed wooden panel supplied by the Di Nuovo craftsmen. And on 6 July 2017, in Camaiore, for the fourteenth Festival Gaber, she painted under the Arco di Via Vittorio Emanuele beside the guitarist Gianni Martini. The links are on the Press page.
