Born in Venice in 2021, Lineadacqua Gallery explores the artistic language of contemporary Venice through the gaze of local artists, in two exhibition spaces facing each other in Calle della Mandola and favoring traditional techniques such as oil on canvas, engraving and photography.
The group exhibition “Remember the Sea” pays tribute to the sea through the eyes of three Venetian artists: photographer Andrea Avezzù, painters Davide Battistin and Vittorio Marella, plus those if the multifaceted Viennese artist and photographer Barbara Luisi. In Venetian history, the sea has always represented the symbolic element of power, but also of discovery and innovation. It was no coincidence that the sea was the main educational experience for young people, who were soon at a young age by their families far from their comfortable city to learn about the world and train themselves by acquiring courage. Through these two exhibition we find four highly personal visions, each of which conveys an imagery linked to its own powerful relationship with the sea.
