Biography:
Manuela Filiaci was born in Vicenza, Italy, among the neoclassical architecture of Palladio and the luminous, layered painting of the Venetian masters. As a young woman, she spent a few years in Nigeria before eventually moving to New York City in the early 1970s where she graduated from the School of Visual Arts and quickly found herself among a vibrant East Village scene. In 1980, Filiaci was a costume and set designer, consultant at La Mama E.T.C. and at summer Lincoln Center Outdoor Festival. It is within this always burgeoning New York art milieu that her artistic identity deepened and took shape.
