Daniela Astone, Director of the Intermediate Program at the ARC Approved Florence Academy of Art, has organized an important exhibition of living figurative artists. Together with the curator, Carlo Sisi, and FAA alumnus, Gaia Grazioli, 35 international painters and sculptors have been selected for “Corpo a Corpo” that will open at the Villa Bardini in Florence, Italy on October 26 and runs through January 12. The exhibition includes a number of familiar names and others who are very well know in Italy. Daniela explains their original intent for the show was to “stand up and make people aware of the movement”. Daniela and Gaia hope to repeat it every year, with new artists showing each time.

Here is the slate of artists and attached is an ad for the show: Kate Lehman, Michael Grimaldi, Donli LiDong, Gustav Sundin, Anastasia Pollard (BP Finalist), Eudald De Juana, Molly Judd, Agostino Arrivabene, Steven Assail, Dana Zaltzman, Zoe Frank Charles Cecil, Ron Hicks, Cesar Santos, Nick Alm, Peter Van Dyck, Grzegorz Gwiazda, Andreas Birath, Travis Schlaht, Daniel Graves, Teresa Oaxaca, Alessandro Sicioldr, Roberto Ferri, Eran Webber, Nicholas Sanchez, Jordan Sokol, Saide Valeri, Maudie Bradi, Michael Klein, Giovanni Gasparro, Aolucho, Ben Fenske, and G.
