Louise Giovanelli has been drawing attention for her delicate, luminous works, which inject vitality into historical subjects from the canon of Western art. Through interconnected series, Giovanelli weaves together visual clues surrounding a specific moment or event. Her subject matter is primarily chosen for its formal qualities and includes, staged photographs, film stills, classical sculpture, and architectural elements. Within each series, Giovanelli repeats her motifs and certain paintings appear nearly identical, excepting slight alterations of the composition, or tonality. Deftly manipulating light and form, her multivalent imagery reminds us that the classical foundations of painting remain sources of delight and innovation. Keenly attuned to the historical significance of painting as a medium and system of representation, her paintings challenge the eye by dissolving representation into carefully crafted textures and patterns. For Giovanelli, painting allows for a visual slowing-down, and beholding her works is akin to a meditative process.
She completed her postgraduate studies at the Städelschule in Frankfurt am Main (DE) with professor Amy Sillman in 2020, after having earned a Bachelor’s Degree (B.A. Hons, Fine Art) at the Manchester School of Art, Manchester (UK) in 2015. Giovanelli’s work can be found in the collections of the Akzo Nobel Art Foundation (NL); Asymmetry Art Foundation (UK); The Contemporary Art Foundation (JP); THE EKARD COLLECTION (NL); Fundación Medianoche0 (ES); The Government Art Collection (UK); The Grundy Gallery Collection (UK); Hall Art Foundation (US, DE); The Hepworth Wakefield (UK); Hill Art Foundation, New York, NY (US); Hort Family Collection, New York, NY (US); Institute of Contemporary Art, Miami, FL (US); Longlati Foundation (CN); Manchester Art Gallery Collection (UK); Manchester School of Art Collection (UK); The National Museum of Oslo (NO); Sarow Gallery Collection (DE); The UK Government (UK); The University of Salford Collection (UK); Warrington Museum and Art Gallery (UK); Whitworth Art Gallery, Manchester (UK) and many private collections.
