by Roberto Nardi (ANSA) - VENICE, JULY 05 - Anna Moro-Lin's art is like a "light" package to carry. It is made of gauzes, colored paper, iron wires, glues, tissues, sometimes discarded on the street which in their essence enclose and at the same time open visions towards a world that asks questions, asks for research, to which the artist tries to give answers with your works.
    About twenty of these works, especially large-sized ones, in fact installations, have recently become part of the heritage of the Civic Museums Foundation thanks to a donation made by the artist, who turned 90, to the Municipality of Venice. Works that will be placed at the museum of Palazzo Mocenigo-Centro Studi del fabric, costume and perfume, which has published a volume entitled "Anna Moro-LinTramalogie".
    They are traces of a "visual story" started by the artist in the 70s, a pioneer of an international trend that adopted the name of Fiber Art, which starting almost from a scientific basis - "finding the reasons, the motivations for what mifa take a emotion "- they always seem to return to the essence of its deep-rooted relationship with Venice, with its atmospheres, with its colors that are never" primary "but made of multi-division, especially blue. In these months of forced closure due to the pandemic for Covid19, she says she suffered a lot, that she "invented" in recent weeks a real need to leave the house to go to see the lagoon. "My works - he says - can be fixed on the wall like stains of color, like privileged spaces: perhaps flying carpets". And about twenty carpets of paper make up a work-installation "landed" at PalazzoMocenigo. (HANDLE).
