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)
