Antonella Cuzzocrea is a visual artist who lives and works is Rome, in the Rione Esquilino. She graduated in Modern Languages and Literature, and started her artistic career in 2003, studying both printmaking and bookbinding. Her research is mainly focused on the use of paper, which she marks with ink, glues, prints, cuts and sews again and again. Her artistic expression was certainly influenced by the Italian artist Maria Lai (who was her teacher at the middle school), especially with regard to artist’s books. In 2017 she started to collaborate with the Maison Valentino, for which she oversees the production of the Cahiérs for the Haute de Couture and Prêt-à-porter collections. In 2021 she produced for Valentino the 3 volume edition The Valentino Rosso Book. From 2021 to 2023, she took part to the Dante Project (permanent installation of clay tiles representing Dante’s Divina Commedia in the Piazza Dante gardens, in Rome). She is a member of the Grecam APS Association, where for over 25 years she has investigated in group various means of artistic expression spanning from performances, collage, installations and video. With Grecam she has realized various projects, among which the installation Confluenza di Orme, and the itinerant project Luci naviganti. In 2022 she curated and directed the theatre performance “Quello che non sai di Lei”, which was presented on 25 November in Naples, on the occasion of the International Day Against Violence Towards Women and in 2023 at the Teatro Antigone in Rome, on the International Women’s Day, and in replica on the 26th of March. In 2022, she also realized her solo exhibition "De Montris. I mostri liberati", 12 large format ink drawings on paper, curated by Gina Ingrassia, soundtrack by Filippo Trentalance and catalogue (ed. Pandion).
