Description

Graciela wanted to be an artistand musician, but found she couldn’t devote all her time to both, so she turned to artand held her first exhibitions in Vienna and Salzburg when she was just 18. She studiedetching and printmaking under Johnny Friedlaender in Paris. She married a Frenchman,Boulanger, so she could have a Spanish and French name; her public name becameGraciela Rodo de Boulanger in Spanish and Graciela Rodo Boulanger in French.
