by Guglielmo Gigliotti
“ When Maria Pina Bentivenga paints or etches, she does not do it to simply reproduce images that she has seen but to develop, step by step, her long and meticulous studies on the nature of marks and line. These are the elements that she uses as the basis for her work and with them is able to create images that can stand on their own. „

Italyisin hopes that Maria Pina Bentivenga will agree to allow Italyisin to display some examples of Maria Pina Bentivenga’s work shortly.
