Euphorie, 2022

Valérie Polizzano  

The Artist was born in observation, the Art of what surrounds us and overwhelms us; she delights in environmental study, which puts her on the alert for our senses, through shapes, colors, lines and contrasts. Valérie Polizzano's insatiable curiosity led her to an academic education at the Beaux-Arts d'Avignon (charcoal, red chalk, ink, pastel, acrylic, oil paint), to then allow her to work alongside a Italian Engraver / Painter, Flavio Parenti, his Mentor for many years. Abstraction then becomes, alongside his profession of computer graphics a necessity, like oil painting his field of predilection. From March 2013, the Artist Painter is revealed; she feels the need to share and present her Creations to the Public, to exhibit in her Region, in France and in Europe (Personal Exhibitions, Contemporary Art Fairs, Art Galleries ...). Her interest in the Aquatic and Environmental world propels her integral Work in a bath of light, where transparency and fluidity hold a predominant place. Each glaze, pictorial touch, graphic design and spontaneous gesture, in a perpetual movement, capture the gaze and the attention of the Spectator until transporting him in a magical and enigmatic universe. The Author develops several Creations at the same time, painted with a knife and brush on different canvases at the same time, with the desire to immerse each work in the heart of multiple vibrant under-layers of glaze and oil paint. If we asked Valérie Polizzano about her influences, she would quote Georges Braque who wrote "I love the Rule which corrects Emotion, I love Emotion which corrects the Rule" and would confide to you that she has always been seduced by the universe of Zao woo-ki and its calligraphy, the gestures and the "madness" of Georges Mathieu, just like the lyrical work of Kandinsky. And yet the hand of this Painter Artist that we invite you to discover is guided by his instinct, his technique; the very essence of his own Existence, of that unique relationship that unites us all undeniably.
