About

Valeria Gasparrini ( Rome, 1964), was formed thanks to a rich contribution of artistic and literary experiences: classical studies, research in the fields of ceramics, painting, fresco, engraved graphics, screen printing, and figure drawing. He specializes in illustration at the European Institute of Design in Rome. She works as an artist, freelance illustrator, and professor of illustration, anatomy, and drawing at the Academy of Fine Arts of L'Aquila, Quasar Institute, and the American University of Rome. As an artist, he has exhibited in Rome, Milan, Bologna, Faenza, Venice, Paris, Luxembourg, Belgrade, Rothemburg, and Passau; some of his works are part of permanent exhibitions. She has illustrated and edited for various publishing houses, and now devotes herself as a writer of texts and images to creating illustrated books for adults and art books. In her artistic research, she combines her illustrative nature with the tools that art offers, which seem more suited to the story she seeks to tell.

He has exhibited in Rome, Milan, Bologna, Faenza, Venice, Paris, Luxembourg, Rothemburg, Passau. Some of his works are part of permanent exhibitions, such as the ceramic work "Rain" at the International Museum of ceramics in Faenza, the artist book "How many irreplaceable lives", exhibited at the national library of Luxembourg, and its printed version exhibited at the Casa della Memoria in Rome.

For interested people,
I am writing to offer the highest recommendation for Valeria Gasparrini who has held two engraving workshops for the Rome Center of Architecture and Culture at Woodbury University which I direct. He guided the students' works, taking them from the initial drawings to the creation of the definitive prints and their possible display in an exhibition. I find her one of the most creatively contagious and inspiring people with whom I have had the opportunity to collaborate.
Let me take the liberty of offering a few details regarding his remarkable abilities. To begin with, she is a very competent artist in her field. She is also generous in sharing her experience and does so with great enthusiasm.
In the initial phase of the projects he offers numerous approaches, both experimental and conventional, with the aim of giving birth to works of art that can then be created on slabs.
In the workshops we used zinc and copper plates, and the results were surprising. It featured field sketching exercises, complex mapping projects, and digital plate file translations. It has provided Woodbury with some of the most powerful and transformative learning experiences students have had in Rome; also in relation to what they do at home. Our students love her and she has been there for them every step of the way, teaching them techniques to achieve their creative goals.
It is a magical moment when the students complete the drawings, prepare the plates, ink them working in their studio. And then they print them. This would not have been possible for us without Valeria's expertise.
Thank you for the opportunity to offer a great recommendation for Valeria and I would be happy to discuss her merits further should you wish to contact me at my email: paulette.singey@gmail.c
Best regards
Paulette Singley
Woodbury University professor,
Director of the Rome Center for Architecture and Culture

“”We always write to communicate, to remember, because we need to let someone know our thoughts and our ideas”; dedicated to the two printers Arlnord Pannartz and Konrad Sweynheym who among all the largest European capitals, chose Subiaco, a small village in the province of Rome”.

“The story you will read is a story that spans thousands of years, in which all the peoples, the Egyptians, the Sumerians, the Chinese, the Babylonians participated and contributed to reach the heart of Europe and from there, thanks to two German clerics, up to Subiaco, in the Monastery of St. Scholastica, where the first Italian printing press was founded at the end of the 15th century. It is a journey that has crossed all the lands known from East to West, it is the story that men have lived so that today, my child, you can open a book, browse it and read it and be transported to other places and other times, to live the stories of great men, their dreams, battles, scientific discoveries and live the emotions that those men have lived. We will tell you about how the Press was invented and how this has also allowed you, today, to learn, know and live all the things that mankind has created. Simply browsing the pages of a book”.
