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.

Artist: Paola Romano
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”. 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.

Modernist Dry Pigment Plaster Lacquer Abstract Geometric Painting Gregg Robinson
By Gregg Robinson
Located in Surfside, FL
Gregg Robinson, American (born 1948) Canvas mounted on wood board work of art depicts geometric shapes and forms with a lacquered high gloss finish. Hand signed lower left and dated 1995. Dimensions: 24 X 24 X 1.75 in. GREGG ROBINSON The universe of visual art encompasses a huge spectrum of motivation and means of expression. Examples range from the most syrupy sentimentality to extremes of moral and intellectual confrontation. For me, the creative process is, on the simplest level, an aesthetic puzzle. Elements of the puzzle include contrast, color, visual texture, graphic pattern, and in some recent work, a simple cryptic symbolism. I have never been particularly interested in lyric or pictorial content, and though some of my work does contain undeniable spatial illusion, even that tends to be a by-product rather than a goal of the primary pursuit: the balance of light and dark, pure color and organic neutrals, energy and calm, strong pattern and subtle field. Having grown up in an environment of contemporary architecture, I have always valued the classic modern synthesis of form and function exemplified by the Bauhaus movement of the early 20th century. Hence, the simplest solutions are often the most satisfying. Obviously, the modernist ideal of efficiency in form and function requires that method of execution be as well adapted to the aesthetic goal as the visual language itself. The media before you is the result of many years of experimentation that came to its current form in early 1992. I work with dry pigment over a plaster surface. My tools are broad knives, sponges, rags and masking. The finish is a high gloss alkyd resin. His prints have been published by GalleryOnline, publishers of Per Arnoldi, Ricardo benaim, Pierre Marie Brisson, Simon Bull, Fanch Ledan, Claude Gaveau and Laurent Schkolnyk and more.

Central Panel, from: Triptych 1974-1977
By Francis Bacon
Located in London, GB
FRANCIS BACON 1909-1992 Dublin 1909-1992 Madrid (Irish/British) Title: Central Panel, from: Triptych 1974-1977, 1981 Technique: Original Hand Signed and Numbered Etching and Aquatint in Colours on Wove Paper Paper size: 64.8 x 50 cm. / 25.5 x 19.7 in. Image size: 38.8 x 29.5 cm. / 19.3 x 11.5 in. Additional Information: This etching and aquatint in colours is hand signed in pencil by the artist "Francis Bacon" in the lower right margin. It is also hand numbered in pencil from the edition of 99, in the lower left margin. The work was printed in a limited edition of 99 signed and numbered impressions with an additional 15 Hors Commerce [out of trade] impressions and 15 artist’s proofs. It was printed and published by Polígrafa, Barcelona in 1981. It is based on the painting of the same title. Note: Tryptic 1974-1977 is one of Bacon's finest triptychs. It was painted by Bacon between May and June 1974 and was made in response to the tragic death of his lover George Dyer in 1971. It was the last work the artist made before a major retrospective of his work held at the Metropolitan Museum of Art in New York in 1974. The exhibition formed the culmination of this important survey of Bacon's career from the late 1960s onwards and was immediately recognised as both a major landmark and also perhaps a turning point in Bacon's career. From 1971, Francis Bacon had been preoccupied with Dyer and the tragic manner of his suicide. Triptych 1974-77 also borrows several elements from the three earlier so-called 'Black' triptychs (In memory of George Dyer, 1971, Triptych August 1972 and Triptych May-June 1973). In each of these great three-panel paintings, the figure of Dyer is presented on the threshold of entering a dark void, either in the form of his hotel room, or silhouetted against a sequence of black rectangles. At the bottom of this central panel on a pale blue, purple and black curved continuation of this arena-like circle, there originally appeared a bizarre prone and bespectacled slug-like figure. Based on one of Edward Muybridge...

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. 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.

Located in Roma, IT
The Walls ("I Muri") is an original artwork realized by the artist Paola Romano in 2015. Painting on canvas; 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. 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” (“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 artist 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.
