biography
Born at the turn of the twentieth century in Venice, Italy, Bice Lazzari (1900-1981) first studied music at a conservatory before enrolling in courses at the Academy of Fine Arts, where she studied still-life drawing and decorative art. After moving to Rome in 1935, she worked in the applied arts (textiles, decorative panels), which provided her with the opportunity to study and experiment with abstract and geometric designs, thus planting the seeds for the development of her future compositional language. After returning to painting in the 1950s and dedicating herself to geometric abstraction, the 1960s and 1970s signal the culmination of the artist’s signature style, one in which seemingly simple colors and marks are used to create linear rhythms and lyrical compositions, allowing her works to come alive as visual symphonies. Turning to acrylic paint in the final decade of her practice, Lazzari’s abstract style became more minimal and hard-edge and her visual vocabulary was reduced to groupings of straight lines against a monochromatic foundation of color, usually white/cream, black, red or yellow.
selected exhibitions
Bice Lazzari is currently the subject of a major exhibition at Palazzo Citterio / Pinacoteca di Brera in Milan, which will travel afterwards to GNAMC Galleria d’Arte Moderna in Rome. A forthcoming catalogue raisonné will be published in 2026, curated by Antonella Soldaini with texts by Cecilia Alemani and Emily Braun. Lazzari was recently the subject of a solo exhibitions at kaufmann repetto Milan (2025); Estorick Collection, London (2022); Museo del Novecento, Florence (2019); National Museum of Women in the Arts, Washington (2013); MACRO – Museo d’Arte Contemporanea, Rome (2011); Galleria Internazionale d’Arte Moderna Ca’ Pesaro, Venezia (2005); Peggy Guggenheim Collection, Venice (2002).
