What a live painting brings to an evening in Monaco

Monaco hosts conventions, awards, launches and gala dinners all year round, and the guests have seen it all. A painter working in front of them changes the evening: people come closer, watch, return between courses to see how far the canvas has come, and photograph it. The evening has a centre.

Giulia paints the room and its guests, the harbour and the Rock, the brand’s motif, or the scene of the evening’s high point. She can also sketch the guests one by one, and each takes their own away.

In practice, for a company in Monaco

Send the date, the venue and the number of guests. Giulia replies within 48 hours with a free, itemised quote that slots straight into a budget, and an invoice made out to the company. She prepares two complimentary sketches so that management or the agency approves the direction before the evening.

She speaks Italian, French, English and Spanish, which counts in Monaco where the guests come from everywhere. She also works with event agencies and caterers, and follows your running order minute by minute.

Event venues in Monaco

Giulia travels to the event venues of the Principality: the Grimaldi Forum, opened in 2000, forty-one thousand square metres of modular space that have hosted more than two thousand eight hundred international events; the Salle des Étoiles at the Sporting, the Salle Empire at the Hôtel de Paris, the Café de Paris, the Yacht Club de Monaco. And to the showrooms, offices and company headquarters of Monte-Carlo, La Condamine and Fontvieille.

She also works in Beausoleil, Cap-d’Ail, La Turbie, Roquebrune-Cap-Martin, Èze, Villefranche-sur-Mer, Beaulieu-sur-Mer, Menton and Nice.

Your questions, before booking

How do I organise live painting for a company evening in Monaco?

Tell Giulia Dal Bon the date, the venue and the occasion, and she brings your idea to life with you. She offers you a free quote within 48 hours. Before the day, you choose the size and the subject together, and she prepares the composition if needed. On the day, she paints in front of your guests, evening in Monaco, and the signed painting is yours that same day. The invoice is made out to the company. Live painting for a company evening starts at 900 €.

Who paints live at corporate events in Monaco?

Giulia Dal Bon, a painter trained at the Brera Academy of Fine Arts in Milan. She exhibits her paintings in galleries, paints murals in sixteen countries, and paints live on stage and at evening events: at the Fabbrica del Vapore in Milan, and at the Festival Gaber in Camaiore on 6 July 2017, alongside the guitarist Gianni Martini. She speaks Italian, French, English and Spanish, and comes to Monaco as she does all over Europe, to a congress centre or to your own offices.

Can Giulia paint during a gala dinner?

Yes, and it is the format that works best: she begins at the reception, moves forward during dinner and reveals the canvas at dessert or during the speech. The guests follow it all evening. Simply tell the caterer and the stage manager so that a square of two metres by two is kept for her.

And for a product launch or an awards night?

The canvas can carry the product, the logo drawn by hand, or the name of the winner painted during the ceremony and handed over on stage. It is a gift built in front of the room, for that evening alone.

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. The high-resolution file of the painting, for your internal communications, your intranet and your social media. The invoice made out to the company, itemised line by line.

What happens to the painting after the evening?

It stays with the company, hung 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, in three ways. Giulia paints the large canvas of the evening, the venue or the brand motif, and your guests write on it whatever they like: the work leaves with their words on it, like a painted guest book. Everyone can also add a brushstroke, or each team can paint a section that she then ties together. And she paints watercolour portraits of the guests, one by one, each of them leaving with their own. 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?

On stages, in theatres, at weddings and at company evenings: she has painted live hundreds of times, dozens of them with the piano and painting show she performs as a duo. Two of those dates are public: at the Fabbrica del Vapore in Milan, for Play Green, she painted 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.
