Edinburgh College of Art is proud to present Portraits of Italian Cinema, a collection of original portraits of some of the most famous figures in the history of Italian cinema to accompany the 2014 Italian Film Festival in Scotland. The exhibition includes bold and distinctive portraits of famous stars such as Marcello Mastroianni and Sophia Loren as well as acclaimed directors as Michelangelo Antonioni, Federico Fellini and Pier Paolo Pasolini. The portraits are the work of both students in Illustration at ECA and a selection of Italian artists living in Edinburgh.
