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

Particolari del progettoProject details

The structure of the text is articulated on three levels of understanding, from the symbolic game of the child to the data of reality, progressing through successive windows of deepening; to do this the pop-up technique was used.Playing under the kitchen table Lilo and Lila lead the children to a simple discovery – but much more technical and complete than it seems – of the 5 elements that identify the opera house: the curtain, the scenography, the costumes, the makeup, the orchestra pit.The illustrations that tell the game in the kitchen of Lilo and Lila open (literally) on the illustrations that show the same actions on the stage of the theater; in turn, these open on photos of the beautiful Teatro Comunale of Ferrara, inside which the two protagonists continue to move. The end of the book opens as a real stage, with audience, orchestra, a prince and a princess galloping away on a white horse; the whole family runs to see the show.

Valeria Gasparrini conceived the project together with Marilisa Calò (screenwriter and director), who wrote the lyrics. He gave shape to the project, defining the pop-up window structure and the mechanics of the construction of the final theater. He conceived and realized illustrations and montages between illustrations and photographs.

The other authors of this book are Davie Zanni, set designer-engineer and Antonio Andronico, actor and director. The advice of an elementary teacher and a musician was requested, and the book has already been used by an elementary class for a year-long work on the theatre, at the end of which the class went to attend a real show.

To date the book has sold more than 7,500 copies.
