World Fashion Festival Awards Dubai season 2 have the great honor to have one of the most talented Italian painting artists attending the festival with 2 extraordinary paintings, Rodica Benintendi.
Rewarded in her credo towards genuineness by an artistic shelter and sense of belonging in Surrealism as the unvitiated expression of our most intimate nature, Rodica Benintendi dedicated her exhibition a 12 works narration focused on an imagery to our earthly-spiritual duality.

Rodica’s brush is praised for mastering by the subtleness of transparency, ethereal contrasts gracefully embracing insertions of gold leaf in a signature technique submitted as a reminder of the celestial nature we’re destined to awake
To quote Rodica: “For many of my works, I’ve chosen surfaces and relief lines as a complete touch. For me, this genre depicts a space of freedom, nonconformity and uniqueness. I’ve aspired towards technical performances and a signature brush in all of my works with a message of sonority in contrast to my apparently-introvert inner structure.
Though a dreamer, I wouldn’t want to want to persist in a sole artistic formula, thus continuing to explore new manners of expression, to permanently transmit emotions in all possible shapes.
I am far from exquisiteness, however what I do helps me feel alive, intense, deep, improved as a human being. The formula is simple, blending a gift with ambition and practice, focus and desire to reach another dimension.
I’ve dared to dream and I humbly admit I haven’t said everything yet.
Perfection doesn’t exist????? Either way, I am searching for it.” .

WFFA season 3 has the honor to announce the extraordinary participation of Thomas Salamonski, a marvelous Austrian painter and photographer! Thomas is a contemporary painter, born in a family of artists – his mother, uncle and grandfather painted – and as such he played and worked with pencil and paper from a very young age. Thomas is presenting at the WFFA his latest works in the exhibition series “Squared Faces”, after being launched with a great success in Vienna in the Designer store “Dress code Lach-Filip” as part of a vernissage and subsequent exhibition to a broad art-interested audience. Each piece of art shows a portrait whose color style reminds of the graffiti and pop culture of the 80’s but at the same time makes the viewer think of sacral stained glass.

Cornelia Steckhan (Germany) who is a multi-present artist in the UAE with paintings displayed in most of the important hotels and galleries in the Emirates, predominantly in Dubai.

Cornelia Steckhan Horn – Corky Art Conceptual Artist Featured Artist from Munich Germany. Cornelia Steckhan Horn is a Romanian-born German artist who residents in Munich – Germany and Imperial Beach – California. Cornelia lives and paints in Munich, Germany and Imperial Beach, California. The German artist’s seemingly simplistic paintings reveal an incredible sophistication expressing her emotional experience versus physical reality. Starting late in the world of art after a successful business career, Cornelia’s paintings depict her subjective emotions and responses that arise from her personal experiences. She has made a massive impact on the art world in a short time with her expressionist paintings. She created and applied a New Painting Trend of Cosalien (Cosmos+alien) (Patent protect exists)The term futurism comes from the Latin futurum (future). The artist breaks with everything she sees as obsolete and traditional. She tries to set a new art trend. According to the futuristic artist, “art” is supposed to correspond to actual life rather than to reflect the past. Imitation of the past, whether as a theme or a motif, should be avoided, since it does not correspond to the originality and the time appropriately. Futurism frowned upon the old beauty ideals and sought “its” beauty ideals in speed and dynamics, cosmos, alien, futurology, science. On the other hand, if we look at their new images, we see a completely different cosmos. It is a cosmos in unfolding, in constant change, an open cosmos of infinite diversity. Cornelia travels extensively, absorbing art and architecture from the various cultures. She is a Conceptual Artist abstract painter and photographer inspired by color, pattern, texture, and light. She is not committed to a genre. A lot of ideas and concepts growing in her mind. For example, the protection of the environment and wildlife, universe and aliens, faces and eyes, landscapes and many others. Thoughts she takes from her travels and brings them with every stroke of her brush to the canvas. With great success and recognition in California, Cornelia also taught to paint for the elderly and for children, even for autistic kids. It gave her pleasure to see with what eagerness even handicapped children were at work. She had many exhibitions in Imperial Beach, Coronado, two times at Little Italy Art Walk San Diego, The In Gallery of Irina Negulescu San Diego, Murietta – California; Phoenix – Arizona – USA; Following successful showings and exhibitions in Ensenada – Mexico; Bogenhausen, Down Town, Olympic Park Munich – Germany; Bucharest – Romania; Florence – Italy; Calpe – Spain; Hambantota – Sri Lanka; Burj Khalifa, Armani Hotel – Dubai (wining the Global Art Award for Coceptual Art ) – United Arab Emirates; Again in Florence – Italy; Palm Jumeirah Island, MGallery Retreat Hotel – Dubai; New York City – USA; Rome – Italy; Monte Carlo – Principality of Monaco; Milan – Italy; Bad Toelz – Germany; Finalist in The 2nd Global Art Awards Palm Jumeirah, Hotel FIVE Penthouse – Dubai; Kolkata, West Bengal – India; Onboard the ship Queen Elizabeth II – Dubai; The second time in Hambantota – Sri Lanka; Siam Hotel Belek Turkey; Dubai and Umm al Quwain – UAE; And once more in Calpe – Spain.“I love to share my imagination and feelings through my paintings, and I am inspired by everything I encounter on this incredible journey of life.My paintings are not finished and fixed, they change to the same extent as the thoughts. When they are finished, they continue to change according to the mood of the viewer.
