Jana Zanoskar (1963) - Covid

Year 2010 Mixed technique: acrylic on canvas Stretched on a frame Signed Jana Zanoskar Critique & Exhibitions CRITICAL NOTE - BIOGRAPHY On the registry she is Miriana Zanoskar, performing artist Jana Zanoskar. Graduated in 1963 from the Academy of Fine Arts in Ljubljana with a five-year program and the final thesis titled "Color in Art, Optics, Chemistry and Physics." Upon arriving in Italy I exhibited at Galleria 14 in Florence, earning 2 gold medals. In the following years I participated in group exhibitions in various places in Lunigiana; art in Tuscany at that time was lively and of public interest. For many years I spent following Giulia Silato, exhibiting in historic palaces throughout Italy. The exhibitions were well organized in historically important and artistically notable venues but, above all, without a future. At the twenty-fifth jubilee I exhibited with my colleagues in Ljubljana, Kranj, and later also in Rome. With Stefano Sichel I found an artistic accord, the possibility to exhibit abroad and year-round in his gallery. The SUBJECTS vary with the ideas of the moment; I have always been surrealist, and naturally also an abstractist with some whims or references to reality, as dreamlike recalls. In recent years I returned to realism, painting tattooed nudes, and with the large paintings I approached the Earth’s climatic situation, such as "The Lost World" and the unknown world of our soul, as in the painting "The Doors of Time." The TECHNIQUES I have used over the years are the most varied. I began with oil paintings, then continued with acrylics, incorporating recovered materials into the painting—old clocks, wood aged by time, vitrified varnishes, ropes, nails, and twine.

"Jana Zanoskar, painter of mysterious heavenly moments, uses with wisdom forms, signs and colors to transfigure the real into a lyrically objective key. In her abstract research, the artist shows an inquisitive consciousness, expressed in entirely new expressive formulas. She thus affirms the sense of form as pure vitality, testifying to the abstract sound of color, and the rhythm of volumes, weaving a loving dialogue with the chromatic matter." Paolo Levi She was born in Ljubljana, Slovenia, a city linked to the myth of Jason and the Argonauts, but for many years transplanted in Italy. She lives and works in Podenzana, Lunigiana. Magic painting, between abstraction and surrealism. Klee treasured Jugendstil, the French Art Nouveau. And Zanoskar also feels the reflections of Floral and Liberty, but tunes them to the spark of her fantasy, to the sense of the fantastic that guides all her research in a kaleidoscope of floating shapes and colors that change according to the angles. In the whirlwind of twentieth-century “isms,” in the Ligurian-Tuscan painting scene of research, Jana Zanoskar’s activity manages to fascinate the viewer, if not for anything else, at least for the restlessness never detached from a vital core of poetry. She is recognizable, always distinctive, precisely for this ability to evoke magical images. She lives and works in Lunigiana. R. Bertoli The artist, of Slovenian origin, positions herself between Eastern Symbolism, inherently aniconic, and Western Iconism, whose synthesis is fatal because it engraves in a transfiguring key on the images that become abstract, just as in the best-known twentieth-century European movements. Her works thus emanate a Central European area that makes them appealing to a cultured, sensitive audience knowledgeable about modernist aspirations. The strong predisposition for abstract and geometric forms undoubtedly derives from a stylizing taste, giving rise to Abstraction and the great painting of Wassily Kandinsky, who clearly influences her. In Jana’s case it is also true that the material richness, produced by integrating painting with materials of various nature and origin, and the fullness of color pastes, continuously reinvented, betray a sure mastery of expressive means, suited to rendering plasticity and volume—prerogatives of our Classicism (it should not be ignored that the painter has lived for a long time near the land of Michelangelesque marbles). And it is not about over-analyzing to force any rational reading. It is evident that the themes are drawn from a continuous, unceasing source that flows with inexhaustible energy... Fantasia, here especially untamed. Driven by that ineffable mystery which is Creativity, it pours onto these canvases a flood of vivid colors that distribute seemingly casually according to geometrically irregular schemes, all of them phytomorphic in character...swirls, whorls, irregular lanes and wavy lines, unexpected angles... a monstrous creature shows its teeth... but it is only a pinball machine!!! Bold painting passages and daring plastic scans, those of Jana, but always graduated from full, bright tones to indicate a coral nature, an underwater depth or a grassy and flowering mantle. The title of each Work, repetitive and insistent on the idea of "unusual," clearly references Kandinsky’s "Untitled," but what matters most is the courage to venture into this fantastic universe of sea, sky and earth creatures. Triangles, Cross-stitches, Knots, Checks, Squares, Draperies, Shells (or whimsical rocaille curls?) and everything that can reasonably be inferred from reading these paintings, now also sculpture, introduce us to a Mystical Cosmogony, which only the Third Eye— that of the Spirit— can illuminate. Giulia Sillato In 1963 I graduated from the Ljubljana Academy (Slovenia, ex-Yugoslavia) In 1965 I began exhibiting at the Civic Gallery of Modern Art of Ljubljana, earning the notable permanent exhibition at the City Museum. In the 1970s I moved to Italy where the Municipality of Florence granted me awards and recognitions in a series of art events and competitions. I also started teaching Artistic Disciplines at State Middle Schools, after transferring my titularity from Ljubljana, and concurrently I pursued Ceramics with specialized courses. During those years I created large ceramic decorative panels, craftworks for the façades of numerous public and private buildings. 1975 Galleria 14, Florence 1975 Chiesa di Santa Maria della Quercia - Cloister, Aulla (Massa Carrara) 1976 Palazzo del Comune - Council Chamber, Aulla (Massa Carrara) 1979 Arte Fiera, Carrara 1980 Tour of France with a stop in Paris 1996 Galleria Internazionale, Viareggio (Lucca) 1996 Palazzo del Comune (Massa Carrara) - Council Chamber, Aulla 1997 Palazzo del Comune - Council Chamber, Pontremoli (Massa Carrara) 1997 Galleria Mercadante, Costa Smeralda (Sassari) 1997 Palazzo del Comune - Council Chamber, Sarzana (La Spezia) 1998 Galleria "Il Navicello": Torre del Lago Puccini (Lucca) 1998 Galleria Internazionale, Viareggio (Lucca) 1998 Ippodromo, Montecatini Terme (Pistoia) 1998 Palazzo del Comune - Chiostro dei TAU, Altopascio (Lucca) 1999 Galleria Mercadante, Costa Smeralda (Sassari) 2000 Azienda di Promozione Turistica, Massa 2000 Hotel Principe, Venice 2000 Palazzo del Comune - Council Chamber, Montecatini Terme (Pistoia) 2000 Galleria Internazionale, Viareggio (Lucca) 2001 Galleria del Torchio, Rome 2001 Studio d'Arte, Venice 2001 Studio d'Arte, Bassano del Grappa (Vicenza) 2001 Azienda di Promozione Turistica, Massa 2001 Piccola Galleria, Kranj (Slovenia) 2001 Palazzo del Comune - Chiostro dei TAU, Altopascio (Lucca) 2001 Palazzo dei Capitani del Popolo, San Marino Republic 2001 Palazzo del Comune - Council Chamber, Marina di Massa 2002 Azienda di Promozione Turistica, Massa 2002 Palazzo del Comune - Council Chamber, Bolsena (Viterbo) 2002 Galleria Mercadante, Levanto (La Spezia) 2003 Carnevale di Viareggio (Lucca) 2003 Palazzo del Comune - Council Chamber, Bolsena (Viterbo) Since 1999, re-discovered by professionals in the field, in particular Giulia Sillato, Art Historian of the Longhian School, I have conducted my exhibition activity among Italy’s most prestigious Historic Residences and national-level Art Galleries that have requested my Works to present them at important Auction Houses. 1999 Rocca di Giovanni Della Rovere, Senigallia (Ancona) 1999 Palazzo Ducale (Ground floor apartment of Guglielmo Gonzaga), Mantua 1999 Spanish Fortress, L’Aquila 1999 Villa Carlotti, Caprino Veronese (Verona) 2000 Palazzo dei Capitani del Popolo, Ascoli Piceno 2000 Rocca di Caterina Sforza, Forlì 2000 Palazzo dei Priori, Assisi Perugia) 2000 Abbey of San Nilo, Grottaferrata (Rome) 2001 Ancient Castle by the Sea, Rapallo (Genoa) 2001 Four famous "Castelli Romani" in Contemporary: Villa Aldobrandini, Frascati (Rome) Villa Tuscolana, Frascati (Rome) Villa Falconieri, Frascati (Rome) Ancient Granary Borgese, Artena (Rome) 2002 Palazzo Pallavicini Rospiglioso at the Quirinale (Rome) 2002 Crypt of the Basilica of Santa Croce (Florence) 2002 Casina Pompeiana in Riva di Chiaia (Naples)
