I've been told I'm a surrealist, but I'm not.
I never painted dreams, I painted my own reality."
In April 2019, BURN-IN presents the Italian painter Tiziana Trezzi in the personale Imprints of Life - a female perspective. The master of chromatology inspires with her surrealist and hyperrealist works. She skillfully conceives formal spaces in evocative paintings and underpins them with expressive messages. Trezzi's canon of knowledge is based on the pillars of painting, engraving, chromatology and psychology | art therapy.
PROTAGONIST WOMAN
In the works there are significant parallels with the Mexican painter Frida Kahlo. Surrealist and photorealist elements occur in both, rarely if ever drifting into the dreamy, but depicting their own harsh, painful reality. Trezzi reflects just like Kahlo the "Imprints of Life", the imprints, the traces of life and society and describes stylistically confident the beauties but also the cruelties from her very personal, female perspective.
Life as an artistic spark. While Kahlo's polio and an accident confined her to plaster and metal corsets for months, Trezzi suffered a mysterious, life-threatening illness in 2007 that she brilliantly conquered through her formidable mental strength. Enormously matured and absolutely focused, Trezzi is treading uncharted territory - her artistic output is "exploding."
BURN-IN shows in the current solo exhibition more than twenty large-scale works from the years 1980 - 2018. Together with the online depot, the contemporary gallery thus offers almost 50 works. Particularly characteristic are the sensational key works Imprints of Life (260x160cm), Serenity (in german: Gelassenheit) (150x120cm), The Two Ages (Die zwei Zeitalter)(150x120cm), To the Middle (zur Mitte)(100x100cm) and Lisa (120x120cm).
BURN-IN is very proud to represent Tiziana Trezzi exclusively in German-speaking countries since 2018!
