Surrounded and influenced by
the magnificent fine arts of Italy, Renata Spiazzi learned to appreciate
painting, sculpture, music and the performing arts. Today she is versatile
and prolific, with soul in her art and is a renowned painter, sculptor
and graphic artist.
Her education and art experiences
span two continents. She studied drawing at the Scuola Professionale
Salvator Rosa in Naples, Italy, also at the Scuola di Disegno CIMS in
Trieste Italy. Upon graduation she worked in advertising at the Unione
Pubblicita' Italiana in Trieste.
Seeking a new adventure of creative
pursuits, Renata Spiazzi arrived in the United States in 1952; continued
her education at the San Diego Community Colleges and received the California
Community Colleges Certificate of Qualification for Teachers of Classes
for Adults, a teaching credential valid for life. Simultaneously she
worked on commissions and taught drawing, painting, sculpture and graphic
arts at the SDCC.
Like a true professional she
continues her art studies and returns to Europe quite frequently to
visit foundries, quarries, art schools, museums and cathedrals.
Keeping up with modern technology,
Renata has been investigating the possibilities of the Computer in Art
and is now using it in all the planning and often in her finished work.
Her current professional affiliations include the San Diego Museum of
Art Artist's Guild, the San Diego Art Institute, Sculpture International,
National Sculpture Society, San Diego Computer Society, the Society
of Experimental Artists, and the International Association of Fine Art
