Michael Defeo
Michael De Feo ( b. 1972 ) lives in New York and has shown his work internationally over the past decade in both solo and group exhibitions at the Aldrich Contemporary Art Museum - Ridgefield, CT, the Neuberger Museum - Purchase, NY, The National Gallery - Bangladesh, Leipzig University - Germany, MASS MoCA, The New Museum of Contemporary Art - NY,_ A3 Art Fair - Paris and Colette - Paris. Best known for his ubiquitous flower image, De Feo has been creating street art for over fifteen years in cities around the world. Michael’s work has been featured in film documentaries, most notably Alice Arnold’s "To Be Seen" which was aired on PBS/WNET and screened at the Museum of Modern Art in New York in 2006. Last year he was featured on the cover of New York Magazine’s "Reasons to Love New York" issue and participated in last December’s Wooster on Spring exhibition at New York’s famed "Candle Building" which was one of the top ten cultural events of 2006 as selected by Roberta Smith of the New York Times.
De Feo’s award winning children’s book, "Alphabet City: Out on the Streets", pays homage to the classroom that is New_York City - using his paintings glued on the streets of Manhattan to illustrate each letter of the alphabet. It’s now in its second printing.
