La scelta di rappresentare una mela non è casuale, simbolo di fertilità, conoscenza e tentazione, è un soggetto iconico nella storia dell'arte. In questo caso, però, l'artista ha deciso di rappresentarla in modo più astratto, concentrandosi sulle sue qualità visive. Il contrasto tra la fragilità e la solidità, la semplicità e la complessità e la lucentezza con l'opacità ci spingono a riflettere sulle contraddizioni e le dualità della vita stessa. ma con un approccio molto sereno
Milena Bini is a contemporary Italian artist. Trained in fashion styling and advertising graphics, she chose to forsake her academic pursuits for a transformative missionary experience in Brazil, setting the stage for a life steeped in artistic exploration.
Milena's artistic education expanded beyond conventional boundaries, encompassing courses in painting, live model drawing, sculpture, and decoration. Her first notable achievement came in 1994 when she clinched the first prize in painting at the Artestrasse exhibition in Brescia, Italy. This early recognition propelled her into a trajectory marked by versatility and innovation.
Her artistic prowess found expression in numerous group exhibitions, showcasing her ability to navigate and contribute to various artistic fields. Milena's dedication to her craft is exemplified by a chalk-on-panel drawing created on-site for the Olivetti centenary exhibition, a piece that now resides in the Olivetti Museum in Ivrea. Permanent displays of her watercolor grace the Lechi Museum in Montichiari, while a captivating sculpture depicting the moon adorns the Lumezzane Astronomical Observatory.
Milena's philanthropic spirit is evident in her donation of a work to the Franciacorta Asst, exhibited in the entrance corridor of the Mellini hospital in Chiari. She further demonstrated her artistic versatility by crafting three sculptures for the awards ceremony of the international exhibition Interpoma in Bolzano.
Her installation "Catch Diversity" marked the inauguration of Chef Alessandro Borghese's Milanese restaurant, capturing the essence of the red apple immortalized by the Celebrity Chef's cameras. This success prompted an encore in Borghese's new Venetian restaurant, featuring a totem sculpture of the iconic fruit.
Milena's art has graced prestigious venues, including exhibitions during the Fuori Salone in Milan. In 2019, one of her apples earned her a place as a finalist in the Artbox Project Miami 2.0 competition, culminating in a group show during the Art Basel week in Florida. The year 2020 brought her the coveted "Artist of the Future" award from the Contemporary Art Curator Magazine in London, solidifying her position in the contemporary art scene.
Milena's artistic evolution continues with collaborations with renowned art galleries, including the Berengo Foundation of Venice. In April 2023, she achieved yet another milestone by being selected as a finalist in a competition for a collective exhibition in New York organized by the Artbox Project Art Gallery of Zurich. Milena Bini's artistry reflects a harmonious blend of talent, innovation, and a commitment to exploring the ever-expanding frontiers of contemporary art.
