Alessandra Giovannoni's 'Verde Tevere' Exhibition in Rome
Alessandra Giovannoni (born 1954 in Rome) presents a new series of paintings in her exhibition 'Verde Tevere' in Rome. The works depict a submerged, wild, almost rainy version of the city, with muted colors shifting the Tiber from blond to green. Brushstrokes push through vegetation to reveal the landscape, while a subdued luminosity offers shelter to the viewer. The paintings are extemporaneous visual notes, bordering on synthetism and abstraction, executed in the immediacy of plein air. Clumps of color, drips, and second thoughts create a liquid quality in the pigment, evoking an environmental and spiritual dimension that is visceral and monochromatic. The exhibition contrasts with her earlier, brighter visions of Rome.
