ROME INTERNATIONAL ART FAIR 2023 - 7TH EDITION

ROME INTERNATIONAL ART FAIR 2023 is a contemporary art fair that presents collective and solo projects by leading and emerging international artists. The 7th edition will represent a forum for the direct exchange of ideas and contacts between collectors, artists, photographers, designers, and art professionals. The art fair features paintings, sculptures, photography art, installations, video art and live performance.

The exhibition analyzes the relationship between body and space, and the hybridization between identities and cultural/physical/social/urban settings in contemporary times, through two main sections: MIXING IDENTITIES and FUTURE LANDSCAPES.

MIXING IDENTITIES analyzes the hidden parts of our identities, through an immersive experience inside the fascinating universe of the complex labyrinths of our consciousness. The human body is a changing system that connects us with other bodies and spaces to perceive the surrounding reality; a strong communication system with its own language and infinite ways of expression.

FUTURE LANDSCAPES are abstract, infinite and conceptual, associated with a sense of freedom and infinite extension. Primarily experienced with the mind, spaces redefine their limits and borders, transforming surfaces in an open flow of pure ideas. This section focuses on the concept of the borders and the structures between body, mind and soul, the human identity and the city, the space and the ground.

During the 7th Edition of ROME INTERNATIONAL ART FAIR, various artists propose works presenting abstract, infinite, and conceptual landscapes, associated with a sense of freedom and infinite extension.Spaces redefine our limits and boundaries, transforming surfaces in an open flow of pure ideas. Robert Falcone, from the USA, produces art, through the medium of sound, which may include painting, photography, sculpture, music, object or a combination. Usually works alone, but occasionally in collaboration with other artists: a work tells a story, and it could be our story. In Falcone’s works emerge the concept of ‘Joile Laide’ (beautiful-ugly) and the idea of finding beauty in the decay and degradation of the often dilapidated windows and facades that the artist photographed in Burano.
The Turkish photographer S?rma Aksüyek, captures memories, and shares her 'window', her point of view through photography with people from different cultures, who from strangers become family members with whom she shares the essence of what she narrates.

On the other hand, Paul Scott Malone paints the limestone skies, rugged mountain ranges and lone flora of one of the most unspoilt, yet alien and threatening places on Earth. The Southern Arizona desert is a rare terrestrial and celestial milieu that has grabbed hold of his imaginary realm. Talking about paintings, the Polish artist Ma?gorzata Czerniawska, with “Towards the Dark”, creates a work reflecting on the transformation of space and other methods of modelling perceptual processes in painting. Ma?gorzata explores new ways to perceive spaces, driving us with her through her particular process of creation.

The highly personal, distinctive and inventive style of Caterina Varchetta, from France, stems from the mixture of materials and colours (pigments, copper leaf, gold or silver, sand). The artist brings together painting on porcelain and painting on canvas in projects in which the boundaries between their respective practices are increasingly blurred. Similarly, Henk van Vessem‘s paintings are characterized by expressiveness and dynamism. His grandiose gesture works with strongly contrasting colours in his canvases, employing the ideas of abstract expressionism.

In her paintings, the Bulgarian artist Sofiya Nikolevu, celebrates the Woman, with all her tenderness and individuality. The Woman is a creator and artist, always seeking, always conquering. The Woman is fantasy, longing and truth, ephemeral, sinful and insurmountable. In the act of painting, Nikolevu establishes a visual language of colour and light. Louisa Seton, from Australia, explores the boundary between artistic photography, portraiture and documentary, highlighting indigenous culture with a humanitarian visual narrative. Loiusa’s elegant and classic style reflects a sense of noble intimacy with his subjects that leaves a deep sense of nostalgia for times gone by. At Medina Art Gallery, ITSLIQUID Group will also present a collective screening program ROME INTERNATIONAL ART FAIR - 7th Edition (see video-program-rome-international-art-fair-7th).
