We often talk about the violence, the madness of Caravaggio and his criminality, I am in love with this painting where we see such bursts, the effronteries are nestled everywhere even in the skin of a fruit and it is sublime . It is fascinating to see saints with black nails, dirty and dusty feet rubbing shoulders with the firmament; true beauty is never perfect. Of this bold and nonconformist painting, which dares to put a horse in the place of Saint Paul to describe his conversion, which restores a Madonna by the corpse of a drowned woman picked up in the Tiber, of this strong and impolite, carnal painting, from this divine darkness emerges a bright light, a truly sacred intelligence.

Christiana Visentin was born in Rome.

Daughter of the actress Cristina Gajoni and the pianist-composer Alberto Visentin, she is also the granddaughter of the Milanese painter Adriano Gajoni.

Very early on she attended the workshop of her grandfather, Adriano Gajoni, in Milan, which, after his death, was taken over by his students.

As a teenager, fascinated by her mother's vocation as an actress, she began training in dance and comedy. She studied classical music and piano at the same time like her father.

While a career in the entertainment world would have been the most obvious choice for her, she was an actress during her early years, it was drawing and painting that ultimately established themselves in her life as the most obvious path. .

Beginning her career as a young film actress, she moved to Paris to study drawing and painting, she attended Fine Arts at the Académie Montparnasse and has since devoted herself to her art as a painter.

His pictorial movement is called Magical Neorealism.

She initially specialized in the study of artistic genres, portrait, still life, drawing inspiration from Renaissance painters and their techniques which she studied for years, notably the practice of chiaroscuro, sfumato allowing the glaze to be brought to a high degree of refinement on its oil paintings.

Her attraction to great artists, particularly those on the stage, led to a series of paintings dedicated in particular to Michael Jackson.

She currently works in her workshop in Auvers-sur-Oise.
