Louise Giovanelli – 4 etchings with hand-painted additions

Louise Giovanelli - Mise en scène, Altar, Cameo and Divinis

Louise Giovanelli's delicate, luminous works inject vitality into historical subjects from the canon of Western art. Through interconnected series, she weaves together visual clues surrounding a specific moment or event. Her subject matter is primarily chosen for its formal qualities and includes staged photographs, film stills, and architectural elements.

Within each series, Giovanelli repeats her motifs, deftly manipulating light and form, her multivalent imagery reminds us that the classical foundations of painting remain sources of delight and innovation.

These four new etchings are each technically complex, combining a variety of techniques. Three of the etchings have hand-painted additions, which makes each impression different and unique. Based on film stills used for recent small paintings, the etchings are new variations on each theme.

A suite of etchings with hand-painted additions in an edition of 30,
signed and numbered by the artist.
Price: £ 12,000
