The Lucart 2022 calendar has here, continuing a tradition that is now 6 years strong. This year's artist is Rita Petruccioli, a cartoonist and illustrator known for her works in magazines, advertising, children's books and comics.
Rita works for several publishers and customers, including BAO Publishing, Mondadori, Sergio Bonelli Editore, Il Castoro, Treccani, Penguin and Hachette. Every month she draws the “Case Rosse” comic strip written by Susanna Mattiangeli for Internazionale Kids.
Her drawings have been exhibited in Italy, France, Germany and Korea. Her publications include "Frantumi", a graphic novel written with Giovanni Masi (Bao Publishing), the children's book series "Matita HB" (Il Castoro) and "Good night stories for Rebel Girls" (Timbuktu Labs).
Her comic book installation “Sisterhood in the Neighbourhood. Detoxing Public Space From Patriarchy”, designed together with ActionAid and coordinated by Rebel Architects, was exhibited this year at the Venice Biennale.
Her latest book is " Ti chiamo domani" is a solo graphic novel, published by BAO Publishing in 2019.
The artist commented on his inspiration for the 2022 Lucart calendar: "I wanted to tell about human moments set in nature. Instead of wild and majestic places, I chose simple spaces, like gardens, vegetable patches and balconies – glimpses of nature within everyone's reach. The idea was inspired by the green vocation of Lucart products and the vital importance of our homes and small green spaces during the lockdown".
