 Information Livia Alessandrini, an Italian painter living in Switzerland since 2002, was born in1945 in Bern (CH) in a family of cosmopolitan diplomats.

She has lived in Lebanon, Greece, France, Spain, Switzerland and Italy--different cultures which blend into her pictorial world.

She took her first drawing and oil painting lessons by Professor Tullio Crali, well known "pittore futurista" then a teacher at the Italian “Liceo” in Paris. She studied at the Italian “Liceo” in Paris, at La Sorbonne University (Interpreting) and at the Ecole du Louvre (History of Art). Influenced by Carzou, Buffet, Giacometti, Vieira da Silva, Gandner in the early 1960s…she created her first abstract “Soul Archeologies” by employing oil painting on any support.

After moving to Italy in the late 1960s, she felt the need to express herself by means of figurative language, at first in the expressionist way, which would become later what she herself defines “petrified language”: technique and colour make every thing granitic.
So, she “petrifies” an idea to keep it in time by painting every shape in an almost classical style. At present her texture, more and more complex and of matter, prevails over narration, as if she wanted to close her artistic path in a circle back where she had started in the early 1960s.

She has also practiced decorating (sketches and glass drawings for art glass partitions, wall paintings, advertising panels, decorative panels, wooden characters for children…)

More than fifty collective and personal exhibitions. After about thirty years in Rome, she has moved her living place and studio to Villenueve by Geneva Lake (Switzerland).
