Vacchiano is a Denver-based artist with a primary focus in figurative oil painting. His work explores traditional tropes with a contemporary edge.

Michael was co-owner and curator of Point Gallery in Denver’s Santa Fe Art District and is currently co-owner of Satellite Exhibition Services, an art fabrication and installation design company.
