Bio
Andrea De Luigi (b.1962, Argentina), SCAD Painting M.F.A. 2024 received her B.A. in Psychology from Buenos Aires University . She studied art with Argentine masters Kenneth Kemble and Guillermo Roux. De Luigi creates multilayered compositions on large canvasses or paper, where she interweaves painting, printmaking and collage, in a kind of playful tension of abstracted imagery. Her works nod to psychological complexities by the breaking of forms and by disjointed dynamisms in harmonious layers of elaborate symbolic elements.
De Luigi has exhibited her work in solo and group exhibitions internationally, and participated in international fairs including Parallax Art Fair, London, UK, ArtExpo International, NY, USA; Kunst Odaagse Fair, Bergen, Holland; Expoart Montreal, Canada; ARWI Fair, San Juan, Puerto Rico, FIA (International Caracas Fair), Arte BA, Buenos Aires, Argentina, Museum of Latin American Art, Maldonado, Uruguay; Fundacao Memorial de America Latina, Sao Paulo, Brazil; Fortaleza San Juan de Ulúa, Veracruz, Mexico. She has received awards including 1st place, Salón de Otoño Roberto Di Paolo, 2nd place, Salón Anual de Pintura Asociación Española de San Isidro, 2nd place, Salón Tarbut, Buenos Aires, Argentina. Gallery´s Choice Award in the "All Figurative/Portrait Art Theme" at the Contemporary Art Gallery Online, 2021. She was recipient of The Gelman Trust Endowed Scholarship in 2020, 2021 and 2023, and the Josh Yu Painting Endowed Scholarship in 2022.
De Luigi lives in Buenos Aires, Argentina where she works as a visual artist and as a teacher to independent artists in the studio/school she founded and directs.
