Bibi Trabucchi lives and works in Rome. Here she founded ^Alif ̄, a
Cultural Association for the Study of Calligraphy.
As a journalist she has contributed to the major Italian
journals. Since 1999 she has devoted herself mainly to her favorite art:
calligraphy. She has been charmed by its artistic language and its
development into abstract expressions of shapes drawn from ancient
writings. Both Arab and Chinese calligraphy are her favorite subjects, she
decomposes and recomposes them in a white space to recreate contrasts of
shapes and colors.
The first
exhibitions took place in Europe (Rome, Paris, Nice) until 2004, when she
was invited to participate in the Biennial of Arabic Calligraphy in
Sharjah (UAE). The latest exhibitions in Amman,
Sharjah, Mahares, Dubai, Museum of Baotou (Inner Mongolia) and
Beijing (first in "798" area and than for the "Olympic Fine Arts").
