Last Friday I was fortunate enough to attend the opening of David Henderson’s first Rome art exhibition. David originates from Brisbane Australia, but paints for most of the year in Venice. The exhibition is entitled Rome, Florence, Venice and displays his latest incredible pieces inspired from these famous Italian cities.
The contrast between Italy’s natural landscapes, history and modern urban space become the subjects of David’s painting with an emphasis on light and form.
All the paintings on display were done recently from direct personal observation in the plein air tradition. David has currently been the resident artist at the CRETA Rome Studio which houses his beautiful contremporary artworks.
The Rome Florence Venice exhibition is on from 25th April -3 May at the C.R.E.T.A. Rome Studio 17, via dei Delfini, Rome.
