La Madonna Nera

There has been much interest and research on the Black Madonna. I've focused on the Italian American connection, currating an exhibition and publishing an article on a long lost festa on East 13th Street, Manhattan.

In recent years, a new generation of Italian Americans have been meeting at the New York site of an old immigrant chapel/social club, now a bar. Check out the New York Times article on the subject or see photos from event in:
  • 2007 (thanks to Todd Caroll and Dina Gerasia),
  • 2006 (thank you Stephanie Romeo and Smiljana Peros),
  • 2005 (grazie Clara Antonucci), and
  • 2004.
