Press Release

Galerie Max Hetzler, London, is pleased to present L’improduttiva, a new body of thirteen paintings and works on paper by Giulia Andreani. This is the artist’s fourth solo exhibition with the gallery, and the second in the London space.

About the Artist

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, and a possible nod to Gerhard Richter, 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.
