Galerie Emanuela Ligal

http://www.ligal.it/ - biography http://www.ligal.it/italiano/note.html Emanuela Ligal known as "Ligal" in the artwork lives in Padova, the city where she was born in 1958, but in the past she has lived in Tuscany, London and, extremely important for her artistic and personal development, in the Tosho-ji in Kyoto, a Japanese Buddhist temple, where she discovered and embraced the Zen philosophy. She started drawing at the age of seventeen. In 1984, the entry in the Dance Room of Matisse at the Metropolitan Museum marked another fundamental moment in her artistic life, a "huge revelation", as she reports. She then decided to study art at the Academy of Fine Arts in Venice. In 1996 she finally started to paint on canvass and from that day she has never stopped. She has exhibited around Italy, and in 2000 she held an important personal exhibition in New York City. The intensity in which she has always lived her life is deeply reflected in her artworks, where the creative surge born from the nucleus of all her past experiences. Ligal, with her work, explores the eternal and human dualism between mask and face, truth and pretence, topicality and virtuality, dream and reality that result in a mystery and alchemic world, an attractive universe of feelings
