Amalia studied at the Academy of Fine Arts in Florence and later had working experiences in Milan and Rome.
The experience of the end of the Second World War that obliged her family to escape from their house, created in Amalia a desire to become a peacemaker.
Thus, during the Sixties and the Seventies, she produced art works to denounce war, drugs and every form of oppression within the modern world.
[1] Starting 1966, she collaborated with several architects including Bicocchi, Monsani, Fagnoni and Berardi creating decorative cycles of sculpture and liturgical furnishings.
Sculptures by Amalia Ciardi Dupré are hosted in the church of San Bernardino in Borgunto, Fiesole, where all the art on display was created by women.
