Education

Andreani graduated from the Academy of Fine Arts in Venice in 2008. She continued her studies in the history of art, graduating with a master's degree in contemporary art from Paris IV-Sorbonne University [1] in 2010.

Works

Andreani focuses on the pictorial genre of history painting. She collects images from libraries, archives and family albums which she transposes into her works and painting using only the colour Payne's grey. [2]

In 2012, she took inspiration from Italian cinema to trace the history of Europe between the 1920s and 1960s. She directed a series of dictators, for which she chose photographs representing teenagers. In the series entitled Daddies, Hitler's generals are presented as good fathers[ citation needed ].

In 2013, she painted the portrait of Margaret Thatcher looking uncomfortable whilst holding newborns in her arms. [3]

In 2015, she worked on the representation of women serving male power during the First World War, portraying women at work in men's clothes in roles such as firefighters or railway workers. [4]

In 2018, she presented L'intermezzo (The Interlude), a project from a 2017 residency in a maternal center in the suburbs of Paris. She combined images of Cuban soldiers from the 2000s with portraits of young mothers. The title of the project was a reference to Les Guérillères, a feminist novel by Monique Wittig published in 1969. [5]

In 2022, she had a solo exhibition entitled 'Kitchen Knife' at Galerie Max Hetzler Bleibtreustraße 45 location.

Andreani was nominated for the Prix Marcel Duchamp 2022.
