Participating Artists
Isole9 is a physical place- via delle isole 9 - animated by the events promoted by the Collective of artists who express themselves within a single archipelago such as that of the search for new horizons that transforms Isole9 into a non-place, an ideal and concrete dimension of reciprocity and sharing
Founding nucleus of the collective are Giuliana Paolucci, Luana Romano and Vito Di Bella who are joined from this year by Stefano Bufalini an artist trained like them at the Academy of Fine Arts in Rome.
Different personalities and life experiences, in seemingly distant spaces and times, yet their works dialogue harmoniously united by the search for urban atmospheres and landscapes, hovering between the oneiric the symbolic and the fantastic; a vision of existence aimed at a color-filled representation inspired by the theatrical and cinematic atmospheres that in some way each of them has experienced.
Thus Bufalini's photograms, blurred, far from the place of action, with a background murmur fit well into the poetics of the Collective, which translates into Paolucci's peculiar style, of her fleeting brushstrokes, vibrant with color, so fluid that the figures portrayed seem as if shaped, nourished by their surroundings; in Di Bella's more textural characters caught in the crowded and noisy places of their everyday life, until, by way of counterpoint, Romano's painting, thoughtful, solid but capable of creating rarefied, muffled, sometimes mysterious atmospheres. Isole9 in short represents a refined balance between tangible reality and dreamlike vision, lightness and gravity, instinct and control of gesture, thought, feeling
