maria pestana art gallery online intends to provide a commercial launch of the art works of selected international artists. Our intention is to promote young artists and less well known artists who have been chosen for their technical skills, personality or creative imagination. Also among our compromises is to present the artist to international competitions and prizes.

We offer to collectors personal consultancy services to assist them in developing their collections according to their special interests or in exploring new branches of contemporary art to begin collecting. In addition we firmly believe in promoting the excitement, pleasure and fascination of collecting art to a new generation of collectors and thus we offer advice and guidance all aspects of how to start, build and develop an art collection.

Lisa Borgiani & Massimo Nidini (Italy)

Lisa Borgiani, photographer and Massimo Nidini, painter, (Italy) work together with a collages of photography and painting. The oeuvres evidence a persistent return to the relationship of two traditionally opposed media – photography and painting. Lisa documents her travels by building a picture out of whatever pertinent items can be gathered and placed together to tell the story; and to those detail shots Massimo adds diversity with his powerful strokes, vivacious colour and full bodied texture.

 

 

Lisa Borgiani, photographer and Massimo Nidini, painter, (Italy) work together since a long time ago. The two artists are currently exhibiting at many Italian and international art sites. They have presented their art works at art and design fairs, such as New York Expo, Singapore Art Fair, Innsbruck Art Fair, Dubai Index Fair.

 

“The beauty of the light and all the games I can play with it animates me in picture taking,” says Lisa Borgiani from Verona, Italy. “It means to enter in another world with a sublime moment; and when I tangle with it, I get the right shot. Eliciting awe is the way Massimo follows Lisa’s icons and themes. Really prodigious. He perfectly bestows all what the features in the prints seem to fail in catching the senses and what Lisa wishes to express. “Before we start, it takes long time to discuss together on what to do,” says Massimo. “Sometimes even months; the rest then comes out”. (Lisa Borgiani & Massimo Nidini, 2009)
