Vénera Kastrati is a contemporary artist residing in Milan, Italy. She was born in Tirana, Albania in 1975. ==Life and career== Since childhood Kastrati experienced a double identity, as she was born to parents who were originally from Kosovo. This identity, suspended between Albania and Kosovo, is the source of many of her artworks. She started studying violin at the age of five, then she kept up studying for five successive years at the Music School in Tirana. She stopped for different reasons and she did not have the chance to touch the violin for years. After this long break, the artist is experiencing how the recovered memory can play an important role in the balance of the body and mind. Kastrati studied painting and graphics at the Academy of Arts in Tirana, Albania from 1993 to 1997. She also studied art at Brera Academy (Accademia di Brera) in Milan, Italy from 1998 to 2004. She also had the chance to study ancient puppet theater in Palermo in 1997〔(Associazione figli d'Arte Cuticchio )〕 with Mimmo Cuticchio, known for his experimental Cunto.〔(Mymovies ''"Il narratore dei pupi"'' )〕 It was there that Kastrati first studied contemporary shadow theater. Memory is an aspect that has become more and more important for her recent research. 抄文引用元・出典: フリー百科事典『 ウィキペディア（Wikipedia）』 ■ウィキペディアで「Vénera Kastrati」の詳細全文を読む スポンサード リンク
