Lago di Como (1998) Pintura por Liliana Frasca

Liliana Frasca was born in Buenos Aires, Argentina in 1932, to a family of artists; thus, her innate artistic talents were nurtured from an extremely young age. Growing up amidst her family’s richly creative environment, Frasca was particularly influenced by her Uncle Ernesto Altini, an artist and restorer at the Museo de Bellas Artes in Buenos Aires as well as at New York’s Metropolitan Museum. It was clear even when Frasca was but a small child that she was destined for a career in the fine arts. The year 1961 marked Frasca’s emigration to Europe where, after settling, she painted in earnest and thus continued to develop her technique in oils. In 1966, she and her family relocated to Southern California. Frasca continued to paint while teaching French language courses at the International School of Languages in Beverly Hills. Soon, however, her driving need to paint full-time and the public’s demand for her art led her to devote herself exclusively to painting. Although Frasca interprets what she sees in her own, ingenious way, her land and seascapes hold incredibly true to the original – any well-traveled person can quickly recognize the location. Whether it is a vividly colored Bougainvillea clinging to an Italian villa with the mesmerizing blue Mediterranean waters as the backdrop, or an enchanting view of Positano village on the Amalfi coast near Capri Island, the viewer is riveted to a certain visual paradise. Of poetic vitality, Frasca’s works that are executed with a palette knife are profound in texture and color. In her quest to discover and re-discover breathtaking sites to emblazon her canvas, Frasca has explored the most captivating spots of Italy, Spain, France, Portugal and the United States. She has been honored with many one-woman shows, and in 1976, her works were exhibited at the California Museum of Science and Industry at Exposition Park in Los Angeles. In preparation for this show entitled "California Forever," the artist traveled to California’s most exquisite locations: so inspired was Frasca that she created 35 landscape paintings. Liliana Frasca currently resides in Southern California.
