INTERVIEW: GIULIA ANDREANI at Galerie Max Hetzler, Berlin, 2020

Bleibtreustraße 45, Berlin 17 January 2020 Giulia Andreani (b. 1985) repurposes personal memorabilia and archival photographs through painting to address forgotten histories, often through a feminist lens. Recalling the collage of Max Ernst and Hannah Höch, the artist uses watercolour and acrylic to reproduce, alter and combine motifs from these photographs generating new layers of meaning. Working primarily in Payne’s Grey, a blue-grey hue at once warm and cold, Andreani presents figurative work untainted by the artifice and power of painterly colour. The artist also looks to the aesthetics of Italian cinema including Pietro Germi’s tragicomic neorealism, Pier Paolo Pasolini’s hyper-mannerism and Luchino Visconti’s decadent lighting. Themes central to Andreani’s practice include women’s position in society, motherhood, trauma and forgotten figures in political and art history. The artist addresses notions of historical amnesia and unearths buried narratives, specific and universal. She creates a dialogue with the past to render visible those made invisible, prescient stories that can guide us into the future. 0:00 "Painter-researcher" 3:04 Painting nowadays 6:47 The role of provocation and irony 9:51 Painting as a trap 14:19 The great and small history 15:05 An "angry painting“ Learn more about the artist: https://www.maxhetzler.com/artists/gi...
