Artist Bio

Lilian Finckel, piano

For the summer of 2017 a special photographic exhibition adorned the walls in the lobby of The Center for Performing Arts at Menlo Atherton and of Stent Family Hall. In Hand: Skill and Artistry in the Italian Tradition, was created especially for Music@Menlo by Lilian Finckel, a New York-based visual artist and daughter of Artistic Directors Wu Han and David Finckel. Lilian's exhibition reveals and juxtaposes, with intimacy and sensitivity, the workshops of Visual Artist Enrico Giannini and luthier Samuel Zygmuntowicz, drawing parallels between two living masters of Italian-origin skills: paper marbling and bookbinding, and violin making.
