About the Item
"Bear #1" is a wonderful watercolor with blue-green hues, in which the silohuette of a bear appears.
Nicola Magrin is an experienced watercolorist who conveys on paper the strong emotions and awe of direct contact with nature. Born in Milan in 1978, after important experiences abroad (he was selected for a three-month Artist in Residence in New York at the Harlem Studio Fellowship by MontrasioArte) he decided to move to the mountains and work in the environment he loves most.
A passionate traveler, he entrusts his paintbrush to tell the story of the vast landscapes crossed solo or in company. Becoming part of the whole allows him to tune in to trees, stars, flocks of birds, wolves, and last but not least, bears.
Synthesis and richness of colors are combined under the skillful control of the watercolour technique, in which he has achieved international fame.
Over time he has forged relationships with talented writers, filmmakers, and poets who contribute to his human and artistic growth, stimulating in him the desire to take on new challenges and overcome unexplored frontiers.
He also collaborates with major Italian publishers. He is responsible for the covers of Primo Levi's works for Einaudi, and, among others, for the volumes, "Le otto montagne" and "Senza mai arrivare in cima" by Paolo Cognetti (2016 and 2018), "Il silenzio" by Erling Kagge (2016), and "Le antiche vie", by Robert Macfarlane (2013). He is also responsible for all the covers of the Tiziano Terzani books published by TEA.
His publishing experience has led him to develop a series of collaborations in which his illustrations dialogue with the texts of some great storytellers. These include: the book by Folco Terzani, "Il cane, il Lupo e Dio" (Longanesi 2017); Federico Rampini, "L'oceano di mezzo" (Laterza 2019); Ester Armanini, "Una balena va in montagna" (Salani 2019) and Marco Stainer, "Passi silenziosi nel bosco"(Nuages Edizioni 2020).
In 2021 he published his own book "Altri Voli con le nuvole" (Salani Editore) with text and illustrations made by Nicola Magrin.

Nicola Magrin
Nicola Magrin is an Italian contemporary artist and watercolorist, born in 1978, in Milan, Italy. He graduated from the Accademia di Belle Arti di Brera, in Milan, in 2004. His artworks mirror his profound serenity and love for travel and the mountains.

Water, paper and colors are not veiled in secrecy for Magrin, who holds sway over these materials, unlike many contemporary artists.
