Pietrina Checcacci Mobiles and Kinetic Sculptures

Italian

Pietrina Checcacci was born in Taranto, Italy but moved to Rio de Janeiro when she was 13 years old. She was well known for her paintings as well as sculptures. Checcacci has exhibited widely and with success and also was a recipient of several prizes. Her art comes in many forms, but in the 1970s and 80s, body parts in close-up: hands, fingers, legs, feet and noses were central to her art.
