Monique Rollins, born in Wilmington, Delaware, in 1980, is a contemporary painter known for her vibrant exploration of color, inspired by the tones of the Venetian Renaissance and the natural and urban landscape of contemporary Italy. After earning a Bachelor of Fine Arts (BFA) degree from Syracuse University in New York in 2002, she furthered her art studies by earning a Master of Science degree in Art Theory, Criticism and History with a specialization in the Venetian Renaissance and a Certificate in Museum Studies from the Pratt Institute in Brooklyn, New York.
<\/p>\n

Rollins’ work consists of oil paintings, acrylics, charcoal drawings and paper-on-canvas collages, using different mediums, including pencil, acrylic, watercolor, pen and ink and, in his latest production, textile material.<\/div>\n

Throughout his career, Rollins has exhibited in prestigious galleries and art institutions in America, Europe and Asia. The metroquadro gallery since 2012 has presented his work in three solo exhibitions and one group show, as well as six editions of Art Miami Context, between Miami and New York. <\/p>\n

The exhibition \u201cWelcome to Electric Ladyland\u201d offers an overview of Monique Rollins\u2019 most recent artistic production, side by side with earlier works, tracing an excursus of her career. A monographic catalog edited by Roberto Mastroianni, published by Prinp Edizioni d\u2019Arte, accompanies the exhibition, providing further insights into the artist\u2019s creative journey. <\/p>\n

Excerpt from the text by Roberto Mastroianni:<\/div>\n
<\/div>\n
\n
Rollins’ post-expressionist abstraction has, in fact, the ability to establish an aesthetic space, which presents itself as a portal to another dimension, in which thought, imagination and spirit meet, giving rise to a multiplicity of aniconic narratives capable of interpellating the viewer and with him or her establishing a dialogue on existential questions of the human. The viewer is prompted to follow the forms and colors of the works, as if they were maps for inner journeys, and when it seems to have found a conclusive perception or to have heard the last verse of this silent music, there at that very moment a new story seems to begin, a new symphony of colors and forms. <\/i><\/span><\/div>\n
