Artemisia Gentileschi warrior painter, coming soon Book+DVD box set

Istituto Luce Cinecittà is launching a special book+DVD box set dedicated to Artemisia Gentileschi: a special edition of the home video documentary Artemisia Gentileschi, warrior painter of Jordan River. “A talented artist, raped, tortured and then humiliated,” the book’s pages read. “Artemisia who did not fall and sink, but first stayed afloat and then with courage, with a straight back, rose even higher and left unique masterpieces on her canvases.” The documentary on the great painter who inspired women had premiered abroad on various platforms and now arrives in distribution, in the best Italian bookstores, with Istituto Luce Cinecittà in a special edition with Book+DVD.

So not only an audiovisual product: inside the box set, in addition to the documentary, available in seven languages (including English and Japanese), extra content also includes the Virtual artspace gallery section, a virtual gallery where you can linger and admire some of the masterpieces of the 17th-century painter. Added to this is the book that immerses the audience in the story of Artemisia with color prints in very high resolution.

The Istituto Luce Cinecittà, the main historical public body that works in the development and enhancement of Italian cinema in the world, of which just in these days the Minister of Culture Dario Franceschini renewed the top management, appointing Chiara Sbarigia as President and Nicola Maccanico as CEO, among the various titles being released gives an important signal in the support of works that last over time. Indeed, the resonance of international reach of Artemisia Gentileschi spans and transcends centuries, remaining more present than ever. Artemisia, the ’warrior,’ who without bending redeems her dignity and makes people dream even in difficult times, conveying energy and optimism.
