COLORE COLLECTION - DEEP COLOR con Valeria Manzi
Valeria Manzi, artist and poet
She initially works on several restoration projects between Lombardy and Austria. She grows up in the graphic art workshops where large sheets of engraving and refined artist books are made, for publishing houses such as Pulcino-Elefante, Derbylius or The Harmless Boy. She exhibits her work in group and solo shows, from Ravello to Sao Paolo. She directed – and was also the owner – the chalcographic engraving techniques workshops at the Academy of Fine Arts in Milan. She has been collaborating with the Milanese poet Stefano Raimondi for several years.
He has published two books of poems: Posando gli occhi sui rami (Setting Eyes on Branches) (2017) and Voci non in elenco (Unlisted Voices)
