2008-2009 The North Carolina Opera Season.
“Where The heart Leads You.”
The Opera Company of North Carolina raises the curtain on three Italian opera treasures that reveal the power of love, an emotion that consumes the heart with a force that can enrage or excite, destroy or delight.
Opera Paintings by Clina Polloni
The challenge was to portrait in these paintings the power of love, an emotion that consumes the heart with a force that can enrage or excite, destroy or delight. These are oil paintings on canvas 24”x 18”.
RIGOLETTO by Giuseppe Verdi
The cold and twisted hand of revenge grips the heart of a bitter court jester.
2nd painting “Rigoletto with a Mask”
