About Alessandra Parmeggiani

I'm born in Venice in 1965 and graduated at the Academy of Fine Arts of Venice.
I've partecipated to several art exhibitions, solo and collective, in Italy and in other coutry,
curated by many art curator like Dino Manzelli, Enrico Buda, Victor Arellano Rey.
I have won many art competitions, among which: an art collective in Malesia in the city of Kuala Lumpur and in the cities of Bangkok, Singapore and Jakarta, a collective of Engraving art in the city of Cavezzo (Modena, Italy) and other painting competitions in Italy.
I have also participated to a special project for the UNICEF and recently my activity is focused also on Children Illustration and web design.

During the Academy's years I have begun to paint following an inner research, from the German Expressionism, as source of inspiration. Continuing in the observation of the metropolitan reality, my works have moved toward more inmost aspects, mixing images of the common life with the exploration of the inner universe.
The acrylic is the technique that I use more frequently for my works and that it allows me a great speed in the execution and a best control on the colors. This is essential, for me, to reach a harmony between idea and realization of the work.
Also the choice of the support is often tied to best mastery reasons in the realization of the works. Surely my preference for the support, is the wood, that is a warm and resistant material.
Lately my attention moves toward more abstract forms, that allow me a more careful study of the colors and the formal balance.
