Art from the lockdown Volare - Official web site of the international contemporary Italian artist Lucia Oliva.
Main menu:
The lockdown can't stop art and its messengers. Artists are used to think "out of the box" and get the best out of every situation, even the hardest ones. And Lucia Oliva especially embodies this attitude. Though she is mainly known for her art, she also has a special talent for poetry and song writing.
From her studio in the beautiful Qantab (Oman), she kept creating art during the lockdown due to Covid 19 and her passion for writing gave birth to the remake of a worldwide famous Italian song, aimed at donating a smile and sharing a message of hope around the world.
This song is "Volare", by Domenico Modugno, fruit of a nice experience created in the distance with friends around the world from different countries (Italy, India, Jordan, Japan, Oman, UAE, USA...), cultures and religions... and time zones.
"We wanted to send a message of peace and brotherhood beyond all barriers and differences, underlining the hope for the defeat of the pandemic".
The value of the project was highlighted by the fraternal co-operation of top professional musicians and singers and simply enthusiasts.
Among the internationally acclaimed ones: Maestro Francesco Gardella, tenor Davide Piaggio and piano player Andrea Vulpani from Italy, Indian violinist Sunita Bhuyan, Japanese mithology singer Eko Tumi and American voice Joe Sopala.
From Oman Fahad Al Abri, singing lover.
Due to the importance of the project, many Italian media gave it wide coverage.
