Beatrice Marchi

Beatrice Marchi, born in 1986 in Gallarate, Varese, lives between Italy and Germany, where she completed a master's degree at the Hochschule für Bildende Künste in Hamburg. Her artistic research explores the complexities of being both a woman and an artist. Through her work, Marchi constructs a female character and choreographs its emotional world, filled with reproaches, transformations, insecurities, changes, and indecisions. While acrylic on wood remains her preferred medium, she also works with video, sculpture, photography, and objects. She embarks on a journey through contemporary society, staging it like a theatrical piece, and lays bare her female figures—her alter egos—revealing a profound vulnerability of spirit.

“Katie, Fox, Mafalda, Loredana, Susy, Isa B are a group of friends suspended between two worlds: the real and the artistic, half child and half adult, half animal and half human, girls who want to be women, women who want to be men, who in some cases wear prosthetics, like the red nose of a clown,” explains curator Rischa Paterlini.

The artist often detaches herself from the subject of her work, using it as a pretext to narrate the human condition, in constant search, driven by the desire to understand where one stands, both physically and psychologically.

In the legal firm's spaces, among the works of the Iannaccone Collection, new productions by Beatrice Marchi find their place, such as Autoritratto, Curriculum – hands in front of a London by Monet, and Le vacanze dei Bag-hands, engaging in dialogue with the faces and subjects inhabiting the space. This creates a dense interplay of references between the characters and their stories, united by shared landscapes and atmospheres.

Beatrice emerges as a "New Alice," presenting her unique vision of life.
