«Ella»: Esteban Villalta
Esteban Villalta Marzi, a prominent figure in European New Pop Art, will present his first solo exhibition in Dublin. At the center of the exhibition is "Ella, la chica de cabello de todos los colores," a work created in 2024 that gives the exhibition its title and becomes its guiding thread.
"Ella" establishes itself as a conceptual avatar, an image that is reiterated in multiple forms and interpretations throughout the exhibition. Her multicoloured hair symbolizes the universality of the female experience: "Ella" is a timeless, nomadic, and unconventional woman who guides the visitor into her world, populated by women portrayed in unconventional attitudes or immersed in metaphorical scenarios that narrate their daily challenges.
"Ella" by EVM is a visual manifesto of female emancipation that demonstrates how art is a powerful tool for awareness, capable of educating the public, dismantling prejudices, and opening new perspectives.
Villalta Marzi will also be one of the protagonists of the solo exhibition that Friulian photographer Matteo Trevisan will inaugurate on May 7, 2025, at the Italian Cultural Institute in Dublin under the title "Matteo Racconta." The initiative arises from cultural cooperation between Italy and Spain and the interest in supporting an artistic project with a dual narrative dimension.
