Palm
Springs, CA, USA -- Fusion
Art is pleased to announce the opening of "Dancing
on Air" by Fusion Artist, Alicia Savio. Alicia's featured show
runs through March 31st with an opening reception on March 1st from
6-9 p.m.
Alicia
is a Los Angeles based Contemporary Latin American artist born in
Buenos Aires, Argentina. She won her first award for drawing at the
young age of seven by entering a contest for the Continental Drawing
School via correspondence. She then went on to participate in the
Buenos Aires Botanical Gardens Plein Air competition, at the age of
14, and forgot her brushes! In a panic, she improvised and painted
with her fingers, taking the First Place Award. Throughout her
lifelong career in the arts, Alicia's work has been exhibited in
Argentina, Canada and the United States.
Alicia's
work primarily focuses on depicting forms in movement through vibrant
colors. A professional dancer herself, her dance career took her to
the stages of the most renowned theatres of Argentina: El Nacional,
Maipo, Astros, San Martin, and Cervantes. She toured throughout Latin
America with the cast of "Tango Argentino" before traveling
to the California where she fell in love with the scenery and warm
climate.
Alicia's
work has been exhibited in universities, museums, privately owned
galleries and feature films. She also created the artwork for the Los
Angeles Tango Festival held at Paramount Studios in Hollywood and the
Los Angeles County Department of Arts and Recreation's poster for
"Tango Magic!" at the Hollywood Bowl.
Most
recently, Alicia's artistic focus has been on creating bronze dance
sculptures. The delicately designed sculptures exquisitely portray
both her experience and knowledge of the beautiful female form in
motion. Her featured exhibition at Fusion Art, "Dancing on Air"
includes both her bronze dance sculptures and her newest series of
dance paintings.
