CURRICULUM VITAE
Olympia Dotti was born in Rome in a lively and multicultural environment, between the studio of her uncle Renato Guttuso, the charisma of her aunt Audrey Hepburn, and the artistic inspiration of Palazzo Costaguti.
From a young age, she realized that art would be her life when she witnessed the installation by the artist Christo, who “wrapped” the Aurelian Walls in 1974, an experience that would define her vocation.
After an international education that took her from the IED in Rome to the Pardon School in London, from theatrical set design in Geneva to the Rhode Island School of Design in the USA, she deepened her studies in decorative arts, set design, and art therapy, exploring Jungian symbolism and Mandalas. She completed her research with studies in gemology, combining painting, design, and jewelry.
Her career spans painting, set design, and new media, with exhibitions in museums and foundations in Italy and abroad: from the Museo di Castel Sant’Angelo to the Museo Macro in Rome with Plexus Art International, and including her role as curator of the Biennale of St. Petersburg. In the past four years, she has participated in RAW - Rome Art Week, consolidating her presence in the contemporary art scene, while continuing her collaboration with the Fondazione Opera Lucifero, recognized and active in partnership with the MIC - Italian Ministry of Culture, and participating throughout the season in the exhibitions of Galleria GARD Arte & Design.
Since 2024, she has collaborated with the Re d’Italia Art Association, an International Organization promoting Italian Art and Culture Worldwide. This collaboration has led her to participate in World Art Dubai at the Dubai World Trade Center, one of the Middle East’s leading art fairs, and she is currently involved in projects in Brussels, consolidating her presence on the International Art Scene, while participating with Effetto Arte in a five-stop international Contemporary Art Tour: Dubai, Beijing, New York, Montecarlo, Venice.
Her works, selected to represent “Italian Excellence” at Expo Osaka 2025, combine Pop Art and New Media Art, drawing inspiration from Lichtenstein, Warhol, and Wesselmann, while developing a personal style she defines as “Conceptual Pop Art”, where nature, artificial intelligence, and iconic imagery intersect.
Her production includes Mandala Chakra Vortex, Soul Portraits, 9 Iconic Heroines, Collages, and Digital Art.
Her motto: “L’art n’est pas un luxe, mais une nécessité.” - Henri Bergson
