Roberta Correnti Biography
Roberta Correnti is a Roman artist born in 1945. She attended the artistic high school in via Ripetta, where she concentrated her research mainly on drawing and painting. During the 1968s he experienced youth protests, which influenced his sensitive spirit. Subsequently he expanded his artistic interests, dedicating himself to sculpture, etching and lithography, in particular with the latter technique he produced many valuable works.
Subsequently, Roberta Correnti was part of the artistic group Il Ferro di Cavalli, where she had the opportunity to meet people of the caliber of Franz Borghese, Daniela Romano, Giorgio Fasan, Dario Bellezza, Roberto D'Ercole, Massimo Antoci and Alessandro Haber. She also collaborated with some restoration workshops, which led her to acquire a particular taste for classical pictorial languages.
In 1965, he held his first exhibition at the Galleria Sula in Rome, which was followed by many others in galleries and public spaces in Italy and abroad. Among the most important exhibitions are that of 1976 at Palazzo Braschi in Rome, that of 1978 at the Western Australia Art Gallery in Perth, that of 1987 at the Municipal Palace of Ostiglia, that of 1991 at Palazzo Corvaja in Taormina and that of 1997 at the Alitalia's Freccia Alata Hall at John F. Kennedy Airport in New York, as part of the Alitalia per l'Arte project.
In 1998, he participated in a relevant collective event as part of the official events of Umbria Jazz, which took place between the Rocca Paolina in Perugia and the Palazzo del Popolo in Orvieto. To date, Roberta Correnti lives and works in Formello. His unmistakable stylistic signature is characterized by atmospheres outside of contemporary times, influenced by his experience in classical pictorial languages and in the youth protest of '68.
