Italian Art

NEVIA TOGNI was born in Terni, Italy in 1964. 

The daughter of the great Darix Togni, the creator of the legendary Darix Togni circus, she excelled at a number of different disciplines in the circus ring. After having spent much of her life performing, Nevia decided to leave the circus and take up painting.

The works of Nevia Togni are full of inspiration, free associations and memories. They are all devoted to the Circus as a Road of Life, and remind us of Fellini, for whom “life is full of clowns”.

 After 25 years of painting “just for herself”, Nevia decided to show her work  to the public for the first time; quite naturally, she chose the Carré Doré Gallery in Monaco where the Togni circus was so warmly welcomed in the past.
