DRAFT: Article begin


Elisa Johanne Rosa Maria Boglino (7 May 1905 – 2002) was a Danish-Italian painter, active in Denmark, Sicily, and Rome. She painted frescos, human depictions, and scenes from the Bible.

Biography
Elisa grew up with her divorced mother. They made each spring a cultural journey, and she developed an interest in Byzantine and Arabic art which brought mother and daugther to Sicily, where she met Giovanni Boglino (born 1898 in Palermo), married and settled in 1927. The mother died in 1933.

From 1930 to 1935, she actively participated in the enviroment around Pippo Rizzo (post nr.7) and joined exhibitions, with large oil paintings and ink drawings. Several of them arranged by the fascist Syndicate, 4 personal exhibitions in Berlin, Milan, Rome and Copenhagen, as well as at the Venice Biennale. From the mid-1930s, her name was not to be found in the catalogs of new exhibitions, writes the website Enciclopedia delle Donne. "Her dramatic and colorful painting inspired other artists who, according to personal declensions, developed the descriptive line of Nordic expressionism she proposed". In the late 1930s, the family acquired a large vineyard in the mountains south of Cefalu, an ancient 12th-centuryBenedictine monastery called Sant'Anastasia. Here the family lived during the war. Elisa and the youngest child contracted typhus. They lived in isolation. She began to work with complex techniques, with ink, guache and watercolor.The work during that period was done after old rhythms and ancestors' customs, reflected in the work of Elisa Maria Boglino.</ref "Life of the farm is richly represented in her [...] drawings, from the 1940's and the 1950's".

In 1948 the family moved to Rome, where Elisa got a studio in Piazza di Santa Maria in Trastevere and resumed painting. She died in Rome in 2002 and is buried in Palermo on the Cimetero di Santa'Orsola.

Career
Boglino studied 1923-26 at the Royal Danish Academy of Fine Arts (Det Kongelige Danske Kunstakademi) by Sigurd Wandel, the fresco line Her Italian descent and interest in Byzantine and Arabo-Norman art brought her early to Italy, especially to Sicily, as well as to Algiers and Morocco. This can be read directly by her human depictions, her favorite motive in drawing and painting.

Her 2 large frescoes (Creation and The Good Deeds) in the family's (former) residence in Palermo, were lost during the bombing of Palermo, as well as Several large oil paintings.

According to a collegue from the years in Sicily Pasqualina Noto (it:Lia Pasqualino Noto

Tiden på Sicilien
Hun var inspireret af renæssancemalere som Masaccio og Piero della Francesca, men også af Edward Munch og den "Nordiske Ekspressionisme". Hun blev en del af miljøet omkring Pippo Rizzo og de unge malere Manlio Giarizzo, Renato Guttuso og Lia Pasqualino Noto. Fra 1930 til 1935 deltog hun med, store oliemalerier og tuschtegninger, aktivt i udtillinger. Flere af dem arrangeret af det facistiske Syndikat, 4 særudstillinger i Berlin, Milano, Rom og København , samt på Biennnalen i Venedig. Derefter er der et fravær af udstillingsaktivitet indtil slutningen af anden verdenskrig. Fra midten af 1930-tallet var hendes navn ikke at finde i katalogerne til nye udstillinger, skriver netstedet Enciclopedia delle Donne. "Hendes dramatiske og farverige maleri inspirerede andre kunstnere, der ifølge personlige deklinationer udviklede den beskrivende linje i den nordiske ekspressionisme, hun foreslog". I slutningen af 1930'erne erhvervede familien en stor vingård i bjergene syd for Cefalu, et gammelt Benedektinerkloster fra 1100-tallet, kaldet Sant'Anastasia. Her boede familien under krigen. Elisa og det yngste barn fik tyfus. De levede isoleret. Hun begyndte at arbejde med sammensatte teknikker, med tusch, guache og akvarel.På gården og i bjergene var mange mennesker beskæftiget, muldyr, heste, okser og får, og arbejdet foregik efter gamle rytmer og forfædres skikke. Der blev lavet vin, ost, brød og slagtes. Næsten al transport foregik med okser og muldyr. Alt dette indgik som motiver i et stort antal tegninger /billeder, som registrering af et øjeblik, som en komposition, eller måske som en bibelsk fortælling. Hendes 2 store fresker (Skabelsen og De gode gerninger) i familiens (tidligere) bolig i Palermo, gik tabt under bombningen af Palermo. Det samme gjorde flere store oliemalerier.

Tiden i Rom
I 1948 flyttede familien til Rom, hvor Elisa fik atelier på Piazza di Santa Maria in Trastevere og genoptog maleriet. I perioden 1949-79 havde hun udstillinger i Danmark og Italien (bl.a. Rom, Taranto, Grosseto og Napoli). Og en sidste gang på Biennalen i 1956 med tre tegninger (tusch og akvarel): Lavoratrici, Uomo e Cavallo, og Figura seduta. Hun døde i Rom i 2002 og ligger begravet i Palermo på Cimetero di Santa'Orsola.HNBS (talk) 17:22, 30 January 2021 (UTC) Early life and career[editsource] Elisa Maria Maioli was born in Copenhagen in 1905.
