BUY THE BOOK

Marco Filibeck, ‘lighting architect’ as he likes to call himself, began his career as a ‘Luciaio’ in 1980 and, in 1985, he was hired at La Scala in Milan, later as resident Light Designer. He collaborates with internationally renowned directors and choreographers, lighting live performances and stages halfway around the world with his personal and original vision of lighting.

The significant conceptual and operational contributions he has made in the composition of light make him a ‘Visionary’, one who expresses himself through light by using light beams as if they were paint brushes and thus creates images to tell stories through images; the image is formed by light, and the light that Marco creates always has a relationship with shadow. And this was, and is somewhat the essence of his professional life, the great art of shadow and light.
