ABOUT ME


SONIA VANGI

I was born in Barga (Lucca, Tuscany), October 13th 1972. I had a technical education (I graduated in computer science engineering) and at the same time I have always had a passion for artistic painting. I lived in Florence for 4 years, where I found my artistic vein and started to show my works in solo and collective exhibitions.
I have been living and working for three years in Milan (as a Team Leader for a big computer company), having contacts and collaborations with art associations in Florence, and adding new contacts with art galleries in Milan, Imperia, Piacenza, Genoa, Caserta.


ARTISTIC EDUCATION

Self-taught person, I have painted since I was seven years old, experimenting new techniques and consolidating the one represents me today: molded plaster painted with acrylic and oil colors.

MEMBER OF ASSOCIATIONS:

Antica Compagnia del Paiolo (Florence). Founded in Florence in 1512 by Giovan Francesco Rustici, has been always open to all art lovers. Even in a exclusive town like Florence, big contemporary artists were accepted: from Annigoni to Vinicio, Antonio Berti and Bueno brothers. Contacts were held with important artists like Mirò, Picasso and De Chirico.

Gadarte (Florence) Sculptors and painters association, founded in the early Fifties. The gallery is located downtown in Florence, close to the Cathedral.
