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 live painting brings to an evening in Verona

Verona lives by its trade fairs: Vinitaly, Marmomac and Fieracavalli fill the city with client dinners and closing parties. A painter at work gives those evenings a meeting point: guests come over, watch the canvas grow, take photographs, and leave with something other than a buffet in mind.

Giulia paints the Arena and piazza Bra, the room you are in, the brand motif or the Valpolicella vineyards if the evening is about wine. The signed canvas stays with the company, with the date on it.

In practice, for a company in Verona

Send the date, the venue and the number of guests. Giulia replies within 48 hours with a free, itemised quote that goes straight into a budget, and an invoice in the company name. She prepares two complimentary sketches so the management or the agency can approve the direction before the evening.

She speaks Italian, French, English and Spanish, which counts in a room where guests come from several countries. She paints in odourless acrylic, protects the floor around her, and the room stays in use while she works.

Event venues in Verona

Giulia travels to the event venues of the city: the Centro Congressi at Veronafiere, inside the Palaexpo, eight rooms from thirty to six hundred seats for fourteen hundred in all, the Auditorium Verdi seating six hundred and reducible to three hundred and fifty, the Vivaldi and Salieri rooms and the Margherita hall of nine hundred and thirteen hundred square metres; the Palazzo della Gran Guardia on piazza Bra. She also travels to the villas of Valpolicella and the shores of Lake Garda.

Your questions, before booking

Can Giulia paint during a trade fair dinner or a client evening?

Yes. She needs a square of about two metres by two, a socket and decent light, and she paints standing next to your guests. From 900 € for the canvas of the evening, painted live in front of your guests. Free quote within 48 hours, with an invoice in the company name.

Can guests write on the canvas?

Yes. Giulia paints the venue live, then each guest comes and writes whatever they want on the canvas: the company keeps a painted, dated guest book. At a trade fair dinner it is also a simple way to get clients meeting for the first time to talk. From 900 €.

And for an evening about wine?

Giulia paints the Valpolicella rows, the cellar, the label or the bottle itself. She has drawn labels and packaging by hand, and she knows how to build an image around a brand: the name, painted by hand, belongs in the composition instead of looking added afterwards.

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.
