Exhibitions, Italy, Firenze, 10 June 2017
The creative woman, the romantic woman, the woman in the party, the fighter, the suffering, lonely, enterprising woman and able to take care of herself. These and many other aspects are applicable to the female universe, interpreted by 15 artists selected by Anna Mola and transformed into dance by the FloDanceCorps dancers with the choreography of Benedetta Ghiglia.
Continuing the thematic choice, which began in September 2016, that investigates the link between humans and natural environment, for this edition, it was decided to deepen the analysis of the female sphere, inserted in a naturalistic, urban and / or abstract context.
These 15 authors - including 9 women – dealt with this theme in an original way, some for the first time, while others have been researching this subject for several years. Some have chosen the way of pure abstraction, other ones that of symbology, others again have taken themselves as models. Femininity, understood as an artistic argument, offers, in fact, a lot of reflection. Internal and external observers have declined the title of the exhibition, focusing on certain feminine features: from the most obvious and manifest to those perhaps less suspect and harder to describe.
The result is a very heterogeneous exhibition, both for styles and for how to represent the subject and the meaning it has for each of them. There are, therefore, those who propose conceptual and evocative artworks, who raises an object of gender symbolism, who has produced reportage in which he "steals" moments of life and who poses, creating complexes self-portraying.
This is how "NATURE OF WOMEN" is born: exhibition with 40 works of painting, photography, sculpture and digital graphics realized by Italian and International artists, inserted in the perfect setting of the Florence Dance Center, a female dance school with ten years of experience and in the project "Etoile Toy".
The group show includes artworks by: Giulia Bacchetta, BibArt, Francesco D'Alonzo, Iraceia De Oliveira, Patricia Glauser, Jane Gottlieb, Virpi Leinonen, Ludà, Anna Maria Maciechowska, Daniele Robotti, Domenico Ruccia, Lillo Sauto, Morris Spagnol, Svetlana Trefilova, Javier Fernando Volovich.
At the inauguration of the exhibition, included in the calendar of the Review of Etoile Toy Visual Arts / Visual Art Florence promoted by the Florence Dance Center of Marga Nativo, Saturday, June 10 will be presented a choreography of Benedetta Ghiglia inspired by the works of artists curated the FloDance Corps.
Curator: Anna Mola, independent critic and curator, teacher of the history of photography. She creates and collaborates on projects dedicated to contemporary art and photography. She has collaborated with the University of Milan and realized over 20 personal and collective exhibitions of photography, painting and sculpture, in Italy. annamola.wordpress.com/
Etoile Toy/ Visual Arts Florence: The festival, conceived by Mario Mariotti in 1987, has an absolutely original character than other Florentine exhibition reality. The aim of the review is to investigate the relationship between creative imagination and body expression, turning every opening in an event that combines art and dance in a performance designed and built in harmony with the works on display. A "cross over" language that comes close to the concept of "total work of art" and who plays the hybrid nature of many contemporary artistic experiences. Guests of the festival, from October 2015 to May 2016, artists of different nationalities who together will offer an interesting insight into the many facets of the art of our time. www.florencedance.org
