Mirella Mibelli was born in Olbia in 1937. Graduated in Rome at the Zileri Art Institute, in 1958 she attended the School of Seeing directed by Oskar Kokoschka at the Sommerakademie fur Bildende Kunst in Salzburg. While continuing to use traditional techniques such as oil and tempera, he soon favored watercolour, seeking and finding absolutely original results in the fields of both figurative and abstract art. In recent years his research has embraced all engraving techniques such as xylography, intaglio, lithography and screen printing, also using unusual materials such as plexiglass surfaces.

The inclusion of Mirella Mibelli’s works in the museographic itinerary identified within the MAN collection of works by Sardinian artists of the twentieth century, subverting every chronological and temporal norm, creates an innovative project, created in a dialectical process that deconstructs the traditional image of the museum itinerary, to privilege the subjectivity of the spectator, of whom, thus, the centrality and ability to move between disparate experiences and suggestions and to discover relationships and diversity between the most varied images, stories and art forms is restored, and at the same time, its flexibility is highlighted.
