About me

Stefania Pinci was born in Rome on November 28, 1961.

 

At the age of eight, she developed what would become her great passion in life: the art of painting. She began reproducing the characters from Michelangelo’s “Sistine Chapel,” focusing particularly on the figure of the Cumaean Sibyl.

Her passion for this great artist led her into the world of art with the certainty that she would pursue artistic studies. She enrolled in the First State Artistic High School of Rome in Via di Ripetta and completed her studies at the Faculty of Arts at the University of La Sapienza, specializing in Art History under the guidance of Professor Giulio Carlo Argan.

At the age of nineteen, one of her works was published in the interior design magazine “AD.” This work depicted Monet’s Promenade for a villa in the Costa Smeralda and had been commissioned by architect Marika Carniti.

In 1990, she began participating in her first collective painting exhibitions, quickly attracting the attention of industry experts due to her personal painting style, free from academic constraints, and with a clear vision of her artistic research.

Over the years, she has participated in numerous collective exhibitions and held solo shows in various regions of Italy, gaining success both from critics and the public.

In 1996, she became an official member of the internationally renowned Association of the Hundred Painters of Via Margutta. In 2007, she collaborated with architect Luigi Pezone to create numerous works of art for the “Imperial Garden” Hotel in Montecatini Terme, the “Hotel Ghirlandaio” in Florence, and the Hotel Siena in Rome. She also created sixteen works for the Architect’s Atelier in Naples.

In Naples, she participated in several exhibitions at the “Galleria Umberto I,” receiving considerable success. In 2007, she was recommended by Roy Van Dalì, the son of the famous master Salvador Dalì, to the “Leonardo Da Vinci” Association, chaired by critic Lucia Bonacini and Professor Giancarlo Alù, a court expert in art and a member of the European Union Art Experts, as well as a Knight of the Order of the Holy Sepulchre of the Vatican. In the same year, Professor Giancarlo Alù wrote a critique of her works and in 2008 awarded her the Gold Medal for Criticism in Painting at the “De Russie” Hotel in Via del Babuino in Rome.

Over the years, her works have been reviewed and published in specialized magazines such as “Arte Mondadori,” “Segni d’Arte,” and some have been selected as covers for the magazine “Zoom Su,” distributed in major airports and hotels in Italy and abroad.

In 2008, she participated in exhibitions organized by the Leonardo Da Vinci Association in American galleries that are part of the Thomas Art Gallery circuit in Los Angeles. Some of her works were included in European auctions through Leonardo Da Vinci. During these years, she also took part in major art fairs in Italy, including Arte Fiera Padova, Vitarte Viterbo, Fiera d’Arte Forlì, and Arte Fiera di Genova, in collaboration with the Spanish gallery GfiIUdÌ from Barcelona.

Also in 2008, she was the subject of a thesis that analyzed the use of color in her works.

Her artistic journey has led her to explore various styles, starting from the figurative and evolving into the material informal, experimenting with different painting techniques such as oil, enamels, mixed media, and acrylics. She has developed a highly personal and recognizable style, characterized by her deep passion for nature and the elements that compose it.

The Palette of the Soul:

The Visionary Art of Stefania Pinci

Her works are created using a palette knife, characterized by a suggestive and immediate chromaticism capable of conveying intense and engaging sensations, creating a vibrant and intoxicating depth,
similar to a dreamlike vision.

The figure of the woman with closed eyes is a constant element in her works, serving as a bridge between dream and reality, a symbol inspired by the figure of the Cumaean Sibyl, who has fascinated her since a young age.
