Artist, Katherine Mangiardi

 

Katherine Mangiardi is an artist and figure-skating coach based in New York. She has worked within various mediums to explore the extension, displacement and diffusion of the body in elaborately skilled activities such as lacework and
figure skating. She addresses overlooked or undervalued female originality in the historic textile industry and the importance of dying art forms such as figures (elaborate tracings on ice once integral to the sport of figure-skating), that emphasize the connection of the mind and body, repetition and embodiment of skill over time as a way to build character and humanity, an acquired stillness and quiet grace.


She attended the Skowhegan School of Painting and Sculpture in 2007 and received an MFA from RISD in 2008. In 2009 Mangiardi was awarded the
W.K. Rose Fellowship in the Creative Arts from Vassar College. She has had solo shows at The Butler Institute of American Art in 2013 and The Hunterdon Museum of Art in 2010. Selected exhibitions include Non Self/Non Site by the AHL Foundation, New York, NY, The Power of Place, HVCCA, Peekskill, NY, Painting Lace, Bernarducci Meisel Gallery, New York, NY and Do it (outside), Socrates
Sculpture Park, Long Island City, NY.
