The twenty-first edition of Paratissima opens its doors to a new universe: PARATIXXIMA KOSMOS . From October 29th to November 2nd, Paratissima invites the public to lose and find themselves in a system where every artist, every work, every gaze is a planet in orbit. An atmosphere of visions and languages that revolves around a harmonious and pulsating center: contemporary art. Five days of exhibitions, installations, performances, talks, and meetings where art becomes a gravitational force, capable of attracting, transforming, and generating.

Located in the Wannerhalle in the main station, it is an important architectural and cultural landmark of Zurich and combines historical architecture with modern use.
Event: Amorpha
Dates: 9 Mar 2025 - 29 Mar 2025
With an homage to František Kupka’s 1912 Amorpha, this group show focuses on (non-representational, non-objective, non-figurative) abstract art that leverages elements such as color, geometry, lines, shapes, space, sound, and/or movement to provide rich, unapologetic commentaries on contemporary life.
I am honored to be part of it with Skin Harmony, a painting where circles—inspired by the skin tones of different ethnicities—intertwine, creating connections.
Diverse skin tones merge into a harmonious visual language that celebrates the beauty of diversity.

Event: Freedom
Dates: 1 Mar 2024 - 31 Mar 2024
For Milano MuseoCity 2024, FLA's The Lab space, the museum's area factory dedicated to emerging artists, presents Laura Rota, a Milanese artist who creates abstract and geometric paintings in captivating colours, all rigorously painted with the brush and without the use of masking.
In homage to MuseoCity's theme of the year, "Worlds in Milan", Laura Rota presents "FREEDOM", a large canvas (170 x170 cm.) painted with the original 8 colours of the Freedom Flag. A gesture of hope, a wish for an end to all forms of discrimination and war, for a more welcoming and harmonious future.
The exhibition is completed by monochromatic canvases in shades of golden bronze and white ivory, a tribute by the artist to the work of Flavio Lucchini and his fashion art.
The painting has been done live during the days of MuseoCity, with a grand finale on Sunday 3 March, when the work was completed.
Biography
Art has accompanied Laura Rota since childhood. Even before she could read, she would leaf through the weekly volumes of ‘I Maestri del Colore’, traveling imaginatively through time and space via the works of great masters, from antiquity to the modern era.
Her classical studies, formal training, and a career in graphic design—alongside teaching in color theory, Gestalt, and the history of graphic design—have shaped a practice grounded in a refined balance between discipline and intuition, which now guides her painting.
Her artistic research is self-directed, nourished by a deep engagement with art history and personal experience.
Rota’s visual language is abstract and geometric. At the core of her work lies the circle—a pure, harmonious form—intersected into compositions she defines as ‘Circles of Joy’.
Her paintings hold the gaze and invite contemplation: a temporary suspension of the everyday, where beauty, harmony, and a sense of inner resonance emerge.
Working entirely freehand, without masking, she employs flat and uniform color fields, preserving the authenticity of the manual gesture even within a rigorously constructed abstraction. Though geometric in structure, her works are rooted in visual memories of nature, in the art that has shaped her, and in a subtle attention to themes that extend beyond the purely aesthetic.
Although her work has only recently entered the public sphere, it has already been presented in international solo and group exhibitions.
She has also collaborated with Boralevi Firenze on a limited-edition design carpet, entirely handwoven by master artisans.
Her work speaks to a discerning audience—collectors who are deeply attentive to color, harmony, and emotional depth.
