Biografia

Cristie Boff (Porto Alegre, Brazil, 1976) lives and works in Florence, Italy. She is a visual artist graduated from the Academy of Fine Arts in Florence, who is dedicated to contemporary painting through research into classical techniques: the artist uses, for example, rabbit glue as the structure and base of all her canvases. He has participated in group exhibitions at institutions such as Fundação Iberê Camargo (2021), Museum of Contemporary Art MACRS (Paisagens em Dois Tons, 2018), Instituto de Artes Visuais IEAVi (Fora da Cor, 2021) and presented his first solo exhibition, Existencia , at the Centro Cultural Santa Casa (Porto Alegre, 2019).

Cristie Boff (Porto Alegre, Brasil, 1976) vive e trabalha em Florença, Itália. É artista visual graduada pela Academia de Belas Artes de Florença, dedicando-se à pintura contemporânea através da pesquisa em técnicas clássicas — a artista emprega, por exemplo, a cola de coelho como estrutura e base de todas as suas telas. Integrou exposições coletivas em instituições como Fundação Iberê Camargo (2021), Museu de Arte Contemporânea MACRS (Paisagens em Dois Tons, 2018), Instituto de Artes Visuais IEAVi (Fora da Cor, 2021) e apresentou sua primeira individual, Existência, no Centro Cultural Santa Casa (Porto Alegre, 2019).

Cristie approached the field of the arts in 1997, when she began her training at the Italian Academy in Florence and perfected her research on classical painting processes. Her conceptual and aesthetic exercises led her to jewellery, an activity she has carried out in recent decades: she studied Jewelery at the Riaci Academy in Florence and developed her training in courses in the area of Contemporary Jewelery in Florence (2000) and in Brazil (2008). The encounter with painting and the exclusive dedication to artistic production has taken place since 2015, the year in which he graduated from the Academy of Fine Arts in Florence.

Cristie aproxima-se do campo das artes em 1997, quando inicia sua formação na Academia Italiana de Florença e aprimora sua pesquisa em processos clássicos da pintura. Seus exercícios conceituais e estéticos a levaram à joalheria, atividade que exerceu nas últimas décadas: cursou Joalheria na Riaci Academy em Florença e evoluiu sua formação em cursos na área de Jóias Contemporâneas em Florença (2000) e no Brasil (2008). O reencontro com a pintura e a dedicação exclusiva à produção artística acontece a partir de 2015, quando gradua-se na Academia de Belas Artes de Florença.
