Review by Laura Mercuri

Francesca Panis painting does not know half measures, her endless search traversed varied painting styles, driven by a kind of inner restlessness that gives her works a richness, a halo of depth, a journey of continued growth and transformation. Sometimes her gesture has the force of the expressionist movement, figures in revolt, drawn with determination,technical detail,the fruit of a good level of artistic preparation and a wisely balanced chromatism.
Francesca Pani, first of all, in every academic discipline ,expresses herself absolutely, a strong personality, an artist with solid values, aspirations, ideals, taking life in the forceful themes demonstrated on the canvas.
Sign and color overlap, setting the stage in small tragedies, obsessions, chimeras, nostalgia. Francesca Pani has the courage to reveal herself, her painting has strenght, character, insight, a rich world to discover.
Treated themes recount her intimate feeling, nourished by faith and disenchantment, illusion and disillusion, painting which enters the unexplored borders of the psyche.
W. Butler Yeats in a famous phrase said: I only wanted to discover what there is to discover, love or deception. This phrase captures the poetic synthesis of these suggestive works.
L.Freud, in a celebrated interview said: The way in which the artist uses the painting speaks about him, the artist has to be courageous, tender, free spirited and to put everything to critical discussion.Francesca Pani is an artist who, with her firey language, brings into play the abovementioned characteristics, opening the door to her inner world.
Witness to an eventful historic period, Francescas artworks express the need to confront current issues, perceived by the artist with human emotional involvement.
This elusive modernity conceals a disturbing visitor that weakens the spirit, confuses thoughts, renders us incapable of forseeing a future rich with promises, this guest is nihilism; Prof. Galimberti sketches the contours of this phenomenon with a timely analysis in his last essay.
Francesca Pani, through works such as politician and liquid chimera seems to shout her disagreement to the world, reacting creatively to massive emotional anaesthesia, which characterizes our society.Subliminal anxieties find redemption in artworks in which questions have symbolic comparisons.
Art has the power to access with the immediacy of the image at the deepest core of the psyche, allowing elaborations otherwise unrecognized in normal daily life.
The salvific function of art is a predominant feature of the last pictorial production of the artist.
Close-ups bursting from the canvas, bodies becoming instruments of expression of the most intimate and secret fragility, at a time built on fragile certainties.
Female figures meticulously defined between melting, sober colors and evocative moods, an aesthetic that heals.
Womans body is a sacred space, a magical place, which welcomes the artists projections, these womens images touch the soul with a calm, enveloping seduction.
Francesca Pani succeeds admirably in outlining outstanding problems common to the human condition, through a personal and authentic language.
