LUCIANA NOTTURNI - Mosaic seductions |
The exhibition "Mosaic seductions" by the artist from Ravenna Luciana Notturni has been opened at the workshop Laboratorio EMME Di Mosaici, Via Salara 33 Ravenna. The exhibition has been realized thanks to the collaboration with the cultural association Ad Arte and the Port Authority of Ravenna. With this institution an interesting relationship has been set. Until the end of the exhibition the work "La Musica" (inspired by Gustave Klimt) will be hosted at the Port Authority headquarters. The exhibition intends to be the continuation of a three-year project of six events organized by the workshop Laboratorio EMME Di Mosaici, dedicated to the more recent history of the artists and mosaicists from Ravenna.
Notturni presents nine mosaic works, realized following the traditional tecnique. The artist renews an ancient art: marbles, glasses, golds and silvers embellish the figurative landscapes according to original and interesting solutions. The art critic Bruno Bandini explains: "Luciana, in una parola, o meglio nelle sue opere, sembra dimostrare come il mosaico fatto linguistico, retorico e creativo riesca come nel caso delle variazioni su stilemi naturalistici, o nella "revisione" di immagini "classiche" che, all'interno di un calembour ottico, ci dimostrano come anche nello stereotipo visivo ci siano processi da inventare, letture da scoprire"
Biography Luciana Notturni graduated at Istituto D'Arte of Ravenna in Italy in 1968. After receiving her teaching qualifications in 1975, she began teaching Mosaic Art at such prestigious schools as the Academy of Fine Art of Ravenna. In 1990 she was invited to join the staff at Scuola Nazionale del Restauro di Ravenna, the most important mosaic restoration school in the world, teaching the techniques of mosaic restoration and supervising all laboratorial work. In the course of her career, she has been involved with the artistic production of many mosaic projects, cooperating with international artists, architects and designers such as Michelangelo Antonioni, Balthus, E. Baj, L.Bartolini, V.Bendini, S.Cattani, A. Mendini, E.Montessori, Concetto Pozzati, E.Tadini. She founded the Scuola Arte Del Mosaico, where in an intensive 5-day workshop, she and her trained staff teach the classical techniques of mosaic making.
