The Benito Pérez Armas House of Culture in Yaiza hosts the exhibition 'Naturally'. An exhibition with which Paola Valentini immerses the viewer in her sea of color, with some nuances of whites, blacks and grays, and with which she intends to excite through the color itself and the themes proposed in fifty more figurative than abstract works, where large format predominates.
Paola Valentini, born and trained in visual arts and fashion in the city of Rome, has lived in Lanzarote for six years, although it is the first time she has exhibited on the island, returning to her "old passion", painting. And she does it in acrylic and mixed technique painting landscapes and figures, also raising her voice and her brush against sexist violence, rejecting war, claiming work, love or showing the natural beauty of Lanzarote.
According to the City Council, a child whispering in the ear of a soldier is impressive, in the work entitled 'La pace', the underwater world of 'Agua' and in general the set of paintings loaded with emotional force tinged with color. The Councilor for Culture of Yaiza, Daniel Medina, accompanied the artist at the opening of the exhibition last Thursday in Yaiza, which was attended by about 60 people including artists from the island and the general public.
Paola Valentini's exhibition will remain on display at the Yaiza House of Culture until February 29 and can be visited from Monday to Friday, from 9:00 a.m. to 2:00 p.m., and Saturdays from 11:00 a.m. to 2:00 p.m. The artist also offers guided tours from Monday to Saturday from 11:00 a.m. to 1:00 p.m. Yaiza highlights that it maintains its program to promote the arts, giving space to the free expression of creators.
