“With all the artists I invited to exhibit in Studio.ra I found an agreement, a harmony. Through the story of our social and professional identity, of our life stories, we made a mutual exchange of personal growth, involving the whole community.
The intent is to deepen together our existence, using images, human events and works of art to explore the wealth of art from a “female” point of view, the strong and complex personality of creative women, designed in the totality of their being, as wives, lovers, mothers and propose to others our experiences.
There is no accurate and predictable path, the chosen protagonist is free to act making use of their experiences in art and life outside of their usual environment in a site-specific context, to share a fascinating “work in progress” with visitors, during the development of the project, and with the participants at the opening of the exhibition.
It will be like listening to a violin solo in composing together a new creation.”
Raffaella Losapio, founder & director of Studio.ra
Short Biography
Roberta Kravitz born in New Jersey, studied philosophy at University College London and painting at the Slade School of Fine Art.
Her work is spiritual and narrative, exploring a variety of media, unstretched hangings, monotypes, watercolors, oil and live performance. Subject include the tables of La Fontaine. Alice in Wonderland, mythical beasts, and studies from nature.
These paintings are the latest from a series of twenty- five portraits of the artist’s niece, but speak also of the internal feelings and psyche of the artist herself.
Kravitz has shown at the Royal Academy Summer Exhibition, in Berlin, Rio de Janeiro, Santiago del Chile, and perform at the ICA, Riverside studios, and Musée d’Art Moderne in Paris. She is currently exhibiting at the Chelsea Art Club in London. Now she is opening a solo exhibition at Studio.ra in Rome.
“Con tutte le artiste da me invitate ad esporre a Studio.ra ho riscontrato un’intesa, una sintonia. Attraverso il racconto e confronto della nostra identità sociale e professionale, delle nostre storie di vita, abbiamo realizzato in un reciproco scambio di accrescimento personale, un’opera aperta a tutta la collettività.
L’intento è di approfondire insieme la nostra esistenza, utilizzando immagini, vicende umane ed opere per esplorare la ricchezza dell’arte “al femminile”, la forte e complessa personalità di donne creative, intese nella totalità del loro essere, come mogli, amanti, madri e proporre ad altri il nostro vissuto.
Roberta Kravitz si avvarrà delle proprie esperienze nell’arte e nella vita. al di fuori del proprio ambiente abituale in un contesto site specific, per condividere un affascinante “viaggio in progress” con il pubblico, durante lo sviluppo del progetto, e con i partecipanti all’inaugurazione della mostra.
Sarà come ascoltare un assolo di violino nel comporre insieme una nuova ed inaspettata creazione”.
Raffaella Losapio, founder & director of Studio.ra
