“Memè Olivi, a sensitive artist, a remarkable draughtswoman, so true in her expression, her temperament, and her mastery of the art of engraving…”
Mario Giacomelli, 1996
Memè Olivi (Memè Olivi; Senigallia, 1922 – Rome, 2019), a master of printmaking and a refined illustrator, graduated from the School of the Book in Urbino and went on to continue her studies at the Academies of Fine Arts in Rome, Florence, and Brera. During the 1950s, she worked as an illustrator for leading Italian and French publishing houses and fashion magazines. From 1959 onward, she lived between Brussels, Rome, Paris, and Senigallia, devoting herself primarily to printmaking and teaching.
Her works, exhibited throughout Europe, the Americas, Asia, and Australia, reveal a style that is at once delicate and uncompromising. Following her passing, her oeuvre has been rediscovered through retrospective exhibitions, publications, and the film The Infinite Line by Amie Williams.
