To celebrate the Print Day in May 2024 I will be a guest of “Officina Arte Alchemica” a new and innovative reality that organizes free meetings with artists and varied courses from painting to silk-screen printing, from classical to experimental engraving. Born from an idea and above all from a need of the painter Manuel Pablo Pace it is transforming from a small reality in a capable of welcoming curious people and students to compare, share and discover the arts together. For the occasion of the PDIM we have decided to gather captivating Artists and their precious hands who will be available throughout the day in the workshop. I will offer art printing demos and provide artistic consultancy for the participants and they will be my artistic companions Stefano Luciano, engraver of space and time. Manuel Pablo Pace, portraitist par excellence, considered one of the most important exponents of the new artistic movement “Magical Realism”, Marika Bellò, young illustrator, Mauro Chiarotto, graphic designer and cartoonist who will print silkscreens and Fusina Fine Art laboratory that will exhibit an innovative photographic printing system. A surprising experience will be offered by putting “Michelangelo” into operation, a mechanical arm capable of “drawing” for us. Together we will play printing and engraving and make all our knowledge available to anyone who comes to the “Officina Arte Alchemica” for curious and interested. The appointment is from nine in the morning until nine in the evening in Vía Maria Prosdocimo 22, Bassano del Grappa, Italy. See you in this multidisciplinary place created to create.
