2nd Session: Local Art from Friuli VG
Framed
The work was exhibited in 2014 at the Pinacoteca De Cillia in Treppo Carnico as part of the retrospective 'Silence, Scents and Colors of My Land', and in Tolmezzo at Palazzo Frisacco for his final solo exhibition. An unpublished work, created during the artist's mature years. Her beloved Carnia is once again the main protagonist. 'Corbellini's painting, undoubtedly one of the finest figurative expressions of 20th-century Friulian art, remains as contemporary and sought-after as ever, a few years after her passing. Her works are always fresh and refined, characterized by a confident stroke and color applied with graceful, flawless mastery. In her canvases—where the poetry is dedicated to Carnia, a land so dear to her and the inspiration for a "fairy tale"—the atmospheric impact becomes crucial, even fundamental, because it reflects a serene, almost mystical state of mind.' These words were recently written by art critic Paolo Pugnetti, a native of Tolmezzo like the artist herself. He is a profound connoisseur of her painting and, above all, an interpreter of her personality: a woman open to culture, yet at the same time very shy and reserved, especially regarding her work, and uniquely distanced from any form of self-promotion or pursuit of followers.
