Flavia Dal Grande (1996, Arzignano. Lives and works in Venice, Italy). Graduated in 2019 in Visual and Performing Arts, with specialization in Decoration, at the Academy of Fine Arts in Venice, where she is attending the MA in Decoration; she completed a period of study at the Académie Royale des Beaux Arts de Liège (Belgium). She currently develops her artistic research at Kadabra studio in Mestre, Italy. Dal Grande bases her painting on the motto “chance does not exist”, often linking her works to the theme of the memory of a feeling, in a way that choice of colors and shapes becomes “unconscious”. Working without preparatory sketches, painting becomes instinctive in the choices of colors and movements: after externalizing a possible trace, organization of the spaces and visualization of a possible subject begins. Working by solving what is created gradually, led the artist to consider that it is precisely the sudden impulses that ultimately generate everything.

The artist exhibited her work in institutions and spaces as: “104ma COLLETTIVA GIOVANI ARTISTI”, Fondazione Bevilacqua la Masa, Venice, Italy (2022); “Art Night 2022”, group show of Atelier 20, curated by Mirella Brugnerotto and Elena Armellini at Venice Academy of Fine Arts, Italy (2022); “Vastus, Art Night 2019”, group show of Atelier 20, curated by Mirella Brugnerotto and Elena Armellini at Venice Academy of Fine Arts, Italy (2019); “Shieri Shalom”, Palazzo delle Contesse, Belluno, Italy (2018); “Laboratorio aperto”, workshop of Painting and Drawing, and group show curated by Carlo Di Raco, Miriam Pertegato and Martino Scavezzon, Capannone 35, Forte Marghera, Venice, Italy (2017).
