Exceptioanl Surrealist Artist Feature 4:

Livia Allesandrini





The works of Livia Allesandrini exudes a sense of the metaphysical that is reminiscent of Giorgio De Chirico's melancholy works...
Her Use of color that ussually revolves around the grey color schema, textured with that old italianate essence of dusky ash and sand
of concrete formations and hollowed conglomerate that envelops the viewer into her world filled with ruinous structures,
of poetic lines of rocks, of eggs(her obssesion), jars, the minotaur, the spontaneously appearing faces, and that ever present
nihilistic/chaotic beauty that reflects her views and feelings in life and the universe as a whole...Her Philosophy, works and crafts reflects a
calm meditative personality and witty humour that makes her one of the best, if not greatest woman artist of this generation, I would
equate her with the likes of Leonor Fini, Leonora Carrington, and Frida Kahlo by the sheer genius her works exudes and I would go further and say
that hers are the link to the hermetic tradition that Breton had been searching...


Without any further ado, I give you Livia Allesandrini, the Metaphysical Woman with a Concrete Vision!!!
