About the Item

Watercolor on paper inch 39.7 x 25.5 - cm 101 x 65
Botanical watercolourist. Born in Bergamo in 1974. She graduated from the Brera Academy of Fine Arts in Milan in 1997. In the same year, she spent six months in the Reserva Biològica de Quebrangulo, where she began to transpose the various species of wild Brazilian vegetation to paper, painting with watercolours. Thus began her work dedicated to wild plants, with particular focus on the main Brazilian biomes, rainforest (Amazon), humid tropical forest and the Cerrado. In 1999 she married
Brazilian sculptor Luciano Mello Witkowski Pinto and moved to the city of Americana- São Paulo in Brazil. From 2000 to 2001 she studied Botanical Morphology and Systematic Botany at the Escola Superior de Agricultura ‘Luiz de Queiroz’ of the University of São Paulo. Over the years she has developed a solid friendship and professional collaboration with Harri Lorenzi, the well-known Brazilian botanist specialised in the study and preservation of the wild plants of Brazil, who since 1990 has collected 3,500 plant species, mostly wild varieties, in the Jardim Botanico Plantarum in Nova Odessa, which he designed. Since 2000, she has exhibited her work in public spaces and international art galleries. She has done work as a botanical painter for the Departamento de. Botânica /IB-UNESP/ Botucatu and for the Departamento de Ciências Biológicad da ESALQ/USP de Piracicaba in São Paulo. Her son Leon was born in 2006 and her daughter Iris in 2014. She lives in Brazil, but travels often to Italy, maintaining close ties with her culture of origin. In 2016 she came back to Italy where she lives and work near Bergamo with her family.

Green and white lake landscape with canoe and forest watercolour painting
By Nicola Magrin
Located in Milan, IT
"North #04" is a beautiful impression of Nicola Magrin's travel to Alaska in 2019. The work was created by Nicola Magrin during a trip with Italian writer Paolo Cognetti on the trail of Chris McCandless. A film was born from their journey: "Sogni di Grande Nord" (Dreams of the Great North, 2021).
A passionate traveler, Nicola Magrin knows how to transfer his experiences and emotions onto paper, filtering them through his intimate world. Synthesis and immediacy are combined under the skillful control of the watercolour technique, in which he has achieved international fame.
Nicola Magrin was born in Milan in 1978. In 2004 he graduated from the Accademia di Belle Arti di Brera in Milan with a thesis on Miquel Barceló.
In 2008 he was selected for a three-month Artist in Residence in New York (U.S.A.) at the Harlem Studio Fellowship by MontrasioArte.
Since then he has built a full and authentic artistic career, alongside significant contributions to literary illustration. Among them must be mentioned the covers for Paolo Cognetti's books: "Le otto montagne" (2016) and "Senza mai arrivare in cima" (2018); "Il silenzio" by Erling Kagge (2016), "Le antiche vie" by Robert Macfarlane (2013). He is also responsible for all the covers of the Tiziano Terzani books published by TEA and Primo Levi...
