The art critic writes: "Painter lirico-astratta, Piro does not play with appearances, but the harmony of randomness, experience which does not propose solutions, but who have no feelings with the natural references. Striking in its proceedings inventive determination to tackle the route as open space, while indefinite, structured through precious scans, which do not offer help for the observer suggest satisfying reading keys, but to solve the many elements visually symbolic appearing as explosions or implosions, occupying the surface of the picture. "
The inauguration will be accompanied by the Choir of St Josephs' conducted by Joseph Gai with a repertoire of "sacred Variations", music directore of the cello section of the Conservatory Torino Marco Ferrari will present a series of pieces titled "Meditation", Simona Da Pozzo and Marta Fernandez will perform the dance "Fall 3" .

Statham has worked with Antonella on numerous occasion's and is always moved by her work."I find it very easy to be inspired by the sense of movement and depth in her paintings, there is usually a zen like element to her work and to visit her studio and see all the work together is a fascinating experience".
