Angelica Romeo
Angelica Romeo was born in 1970 in Rome, where she also lives and works. In 1991 she graduated from the Colalucci restoration school and began her artistic career. Prone to an impetuous dynamism that makes material and color the functional elements for an unconditional surrender of personal expressiveness, her works appear strongly gestural.
She made her debut in 2009 at the Romberg gallery with the exhibition Azioni, Contrazioni, Rivelazioni, curated by Gianluca Marziani. She participated in several group exhibitions including: Smart Made in Italysponsored by the Embassy of Italy in the Principality of Monaco and Arte senza frontiere at Palazzo Colonna in Rome.
Her stylistic signature is the formal outcome of a multi-material rhabdomantic abstract-brand, with the echo of a naturalistic inspiration. Her intent is to achieve a formal result with the sign, whose style presents an apparent casualness of the gesture and its physical presence acts over time on the canvas in order to have a creative and characterizing function.
In 2011 she held her second personal exhibition entitled De Aqua, and in 2014 she presented the project Vinyle. In 2015 she participated at the exhibition Arte in circolo, curated by Gianluca Marziani and Giulia Abate and in 2017 she took part in the Presenze, Assenze exhibition at the Galleria d’arte Eitch Borromini in Rome. In May 2018, Angelica Romeo participated together with Brigita Huemer in the duo exhibition EMOTIVA, at Mucciaccia Contemporary in Rome with the curatorship of Cesare Biasini Selvaggi.
