Donatella VIOLI

About the Item

Donatella Violi was born in Ovada (AL), moved to Milan and subsequently to Reggio Emilia. As she was taking lessons at the Institute of Science, she was taking courses engraving painting and art history. In 1983 she began her career as an artist, participating in competitions and exhibitions in Italy and abroad (Germany, Japan, Switzerland). Attracted by the world that surrounds her, she looks at it and reproduces it through a personal “alphabet of colors”, acquired by the attendance of the studio of the master Homer Ettorre. As written by Aurora Marzi, « The fascinating theme of the trip is always present in the life and works of Donatella Violi, as inner journey, as autobiographical path: the birth in Ovada in Piedmont, her childhood in Milan, youth in Reggio Emilia and, followed by an immersion in geographical realities so different, the Amazon, Turkey, Scotland, America … Each trip is transformed into an intimate path of sounds, images and emotions, a diary “on board”that she notes meticulously on canvas, saturating them with intense colors, ” scratched” by a strong and incisive sign » (Itineris and Calvino Invisible Cities, 2012)

  • Ogeeche Lament
    Located in ATLANTA, GA
    You meet the Spanish artist Alexandro Santana and you think, cripes, can he be for real? So handsome, so flamboyant, so seductive, so amusing -- you’re not sure whether it’s intentional or inadvertent. And then you discover he is the son of a notorious Dominican admiral, that the tyrannical dictator Trujillo was best man at his parents’ wedding, that his mother was a fabled high-society beauty, that he grew up on battleships and estancias before going, inevitably, to Brown. Even more surprisingly, Santana stayed in Providence for graduate studies at the Rhode Island School of Design, where he received his degree in architecture, soon plying his trade in Manhattan and his adopted city of Savannah, where he eventually set up his own firm. Astonishingly, in this era of CAD, he draws every detail entirely by hand. Considering his tweeds, his bow ties, his drawl and debonair dress, it is perhaps not surprising to learn that Santana’s architectural taste is strongly neo-classical, inspired by the vernacular Palladianism of antebellum Georgia, with of course a touch of the Postmodern. Santana’s detailed and decorous architectural plans for his clients are complemented by drawings created for solely for himself -- exotic imaginary cityscapes and urban fantasias, like the dreams of Sir John Soane channeled through Aldo Rossi or John Hejduk...
