Fiorentina Giannotta

New York, 1964. High School Diploma in Art and Master Degree in Architecture at Florence University.
In 2005, she resumed study of drawing, painting and goldsmith's art in jewelry.So the dreams, apparitions, and thoughts that crowd our minds when waking early in the morning, in a widespread ironic visionary that only passion can make real.
But also figures to read as illustrations and testimonies of an era beyond any possible anecdotal descriptiveness, recalling that in the end, of what is seen here, is some sort of approval of the image.
Fiorentina Giannotta, through printing, always draws from her archives, including specific choices and defined references, arriving at a solution that as the artist says “are inspired by great painters, from novels and fiction”, in a widespread vision that becomes a work of art that overcomes the concept of form.
Some her works, sacred character, are in the Diocesan Museum of Lecce, Italy.
In addition, she's author of Altarpieces in the Church of Santa Maria della Fiducia, Giorgilorio (Lecce).
She was present, also, at 54th Biennial of Art in Venice, Italy Pavilion.
Her personal world is inhabited by historical figures or ordinary people, always iconic.
Processed in a too colorful space, with industrial paints and brushes for ceramic, they characterize her works in very original way.
