ABOUT THE ARTIST

Micol Biasetti has an international background; born to Italian parents in Lima, Peru’, she has lived in four different countries for extended periods of time.

She graduated from an international school in Caracas, Venezuela, and her academic success, along with parental pressure, led her to obtain an MD with highest honors in Milan, Italy. Her scientific background, however, did not put an end to her artistic zeal.

During the past three years, Micol has dedicated herself to raising her children and painting. She puts an enormous amount of passion in her work, expressing herself through abstract paintings on canvas boards or wooden panels.

By exploring the many advantages of acrylic paint, and by trusting her instincts, Micol has developed her own vigorous style. Her work was described to convey a sense of immediacy and spontaneity through the skillful expression of movement, rhythm, color, dimension and texture.

Micol’s artwork has qualified for representation by Agora Gallery in Chelsea New York (www.agora-gallery.com )and American Fine Art Gallery in Dallas Texas (www.americanfineart.com).Her work was also exhibited at the X Gallery in Dallas Texas (www.500xgallery.org) and The Italian Club of Dallas. Additionally, Micol is collaborating with Mosaic (www.mosaicinfo.org), a ministry that opens its doors to people with disabilities. Her partnership with Mosaic includes bi-annual auctions, among other exciting events, during which 20% of the proceeds is donated to charity.

At the end of 2007, Micol started an exciting partnership with entrepreneur-visionary Clayton Philips, who created the ambitious “Tuscany – Art in Dining” project in Grapevine, Texas. The lavish Italian restaurant will feature Micol’s art from its opening day in May 2008.
