Joolie Green is Awarded Special Mention:
for the way she has managed to revive the references to art history in a personal style and giving through the color and the “vagueness” of the brush strokes a mixed feeling between ancient and contemporary spirit and indefinite. (Carolina Lio, art critic, Barcelona)
per il modo in cui ha saputo riproporre dei rimandi alla storia dell’arte in uno stile personale e dando attraverso il colore e la “vaghezza” delle pennellate una sensazione mista tra epoca antica e indefinita e spirito contemporaneo. (Carolina Lio, critico d’arte, Barcellona)

Artist Statement
“Naples is a paradise. Everyone lives in state of intoxicated self-forgetfulness, myself included…”
Goethe March 16, 1787. Page 198.
These lines and others written by Goethe inspired my painting, by the dream-like quality and color of his text, I am seeing the Bay of Naples through the eyes of Goethe.
