Monique Rollins, born in Wilmington, Delaware, in 1980, is a contemporary painter known for her vibrant exploration of color, inspired by the tones of the Venetian Renaissance and the natural and urban landscape of contemporary Italy. After earning a Bachelor of Fine Arts (BFA) degree from Syracuse University in New York in 2002, she furthered her art studies by earning a Master of Science degree in Art Theory, Criticism and History with a specialization in the Venetian Renaissance and a Certificate in Museum Studies from the Pratt Institute in Brooklyn, New York.
Throughout his career, Rollins has exhibited in prestigious galleries and art institutions in America, Europe and Asia. Metroquadro gallery since 2012 has presented his work in three solo exhibitions and one group show, as well as six editions of Art Miami Context, between Miami and New York.
The exhibition “Welcome to Electric Ladyland” offers an overview of Monique Rollins’ most recent artistic production, side by side with earlier works, tracing an excursus of her career. A monographic catalog edited by Roberto Mastroianni, published by Prinp Edizioni d’Arte, accompanies the exhibition, providing further insights into the artist’s creative journey.
