Paola Romano Art
b. 1951
Paola Romano was born in Monterotondo, Rome in 1951. She studied at the Rome University of Fine Arts and developed her style in the Roman artistic environment. Later, she opened an art studio in the suggestive ancient borough of Rome, where she currently works and dwells. Her first solo show of 2005, at the Galleria dei Leoni in Via Margutta, was followed by many important exhibitions both in Italy and abroad. Indeed, since 2000 she undertakes an active pathway in the creation of artworks with different kinds of materials. Matter, with all its possibilities of manipulation and its enthralling forms, becomes the main protagonist of her following series. Among her most important series, we find Moons (Lune), which in 2012 dominated the sky in via Margutta in Rome, the series Planimetries (Planimetrie), Plastics (Plastiche), Zoom, the evocative series of works realized in fresco, the very celebrated bronze sculptures, and the series Monochromes (Monocromi). The aesthetic impact of Paola Romano’s artworks is strong and fascinating, and it has been noticed by some important Italian film directors and scenographers. In 2005, Pupi Avati commissioned to the Romano three artworks for his film La cena per farli conoscere, and in 2014 one artwork from the series Monochromes appeared in the film Sotto una buona stella by Carlo Verdone. In 2012, one of her Moons appeared in a scenography of the theatrical play Penso che un giorno così… by Gianni Nazzaro. The series found great success and fascinated also the Gruppo Zarineh Tappeti, which decided to produce precious fabrics inspired by a selection of Romano’s artworks, presented for the first time to the public at the exhibition “Farshe-Mah” (“Moon Carpets”) in 2015 at the Convention Center of Rome Events. Noteworthy among her main expositions is the exhibition at the Cultural Center in Hong Kong, the exhibition at the Università Pontificia Urbaniana in Vatican City, the solo shows AD-Visioni, Dal Cosmo al Caos and Esperienze Estetiche and the group show La Natività in Rome (between 2005–07), the itinerant exhibition “Quarta Fase.” In 2011, she took part in the 54th Venice Biennial in the Italian Pavilion at the Venice Armory, where she exhibited an important three-dimensional installation. In the same year, she took part in the show Il Mare della tranquillità at the Museum of Sea in Genoa and in the exhibition at the Lab for Art in Milan. In 2012, she realized the exhibition “Equilibri astrali” at the complex Sant’Andrea al Quirinale in Rome and the personal show Paola Romano tra sogno e realtà at Nova Milanese. The following year, she exhibited at the new location of the Philobiblon Gallery in Rome with the solo show Io, Paola Romano.” In 2014, she had the double personal exhibition “Similitudine e Contrasto” at the complex of the Vittoriano in Rome and “Sconfinamenti” at the Academy of Romania in Rome. Among her latest expositions, worthy of mention is Silenti Riflessi at the Stadio of Domiziano in Rome, the exhibition at the MACRO in Rome and Broadway, New York, in 2018. It is also possible to admire Romano’s artworks in permanent exhibitions at the Fondazione Magna Carta in Rome and the Sale Urbaniana in Vatican City. Among her recognitions, worthy of mention is the “Premio Internazionale Arcaista” of 2007, “Approdi d’Autore” and the “Premio Roma” of 2009.

Meeting - Original Etching by Paola Romano - 20th Century
By Paola Romano
Located in Roma, IT
Appointment is an original etching artwork realized by Paola Romano.
Hand signed on the lower right in pencil and numbered edition 54/99 prints.
Perfect conditions.
Her artworks are characterized by great dynamism and gestures, and they are influenced by the Italian Informal art movement, pioneered by Emilio Vedova and Alberto Burri. “For the artist, painting means entering matter and color, exploring all their possibilities and reaching its declared objective: movement”. The study of technique, the research, and the experimentation integrate with her personal identity. Gianluca Ranzi asserts that “Paola Romano’s artworks breathe as a living organism, on which skin its own genetic memory is written, and on which essence the determination of its future lays”.

The Time - Mixed Media by Paola Romano - 2016
By Paola Romano
Located in Roma, IT
The Time ("Il Tempo") is an original artwork realized by Paola Romano in 2016. Hand signed and dated on the back. Perfect conditions.
In her artistic process, Paola Romano favors matter, manipulating it and investigating the possibilities of its forms. The artist exerts her creative power through the plastic re-elaboration of objects, to give life to new and unexpected forms. Her artworks are characterized by great dynamism and gestures, and they are influenced by the Italian Informal art movement, pioneered by Emilio Vedova and Alberto Burri. The series are defined in these words: “For the artist, painting means entering matter and color, exploring all their possibilities and reaching its declared objective: movement”. The study of technique, the research, and the experimentation integrate with her personal identity. Gianluca Ranzi asserts that “Paola Romano’s artworks breathe as a living organism, on which skin its own genetic memory is written, and on which essence the determination of its future lays”. Indeed, the surfaces of her artworks are molded to create unexpectedly soft volumes, or to become the supports for repetitive symbols and codes that compose always newer patterns.
Paola Romano was born in Monterotondo (Rome) in 1951. She studied at the RUFA (Rome University of Fine Arts), and developed her style in the Roman artistic environment; later, she opened an art studio in the suggestive ancient borough of Rome, where she currently works and dwells.
