Ekaterina Nikolaevna Kachura (also Katschura)-Falileeva was born in 1886 in Warsaw (at that time - Russian Empire) as the daughter of Major-General serving in Volynski Guards Regiment, N. S. Rogal-Kachura. She studied at a secondary all-girls school in Kamenets-Podolsk (now West Ukraine). In 1907 she graduated from the painting class of Odessa Art College and, in the same year, entered the Imperial Academy of Fine Arts, where she studied until 1914 and where her teachers were D. N. Kardovski and N. N. Dubovskoy. Parallel to her studies at the Academy she attended the academic studio of engraver Professor V. V. Mate.
In January 1909 Ekaterina Kachura married well-known Russian graphic artist V. D. Falileev. In 1911 and 1912, together with her husband, she worked in Italy, where (on Capri) she made acquaintance with Maxim Gorky and engraved his portrait (1912). Until 1916 the couple lived in St. Petersburg and on Volga; from 1917-1922 - in Moscow.
In her "Russian period," Ekaterina Nikolaevna Kachura-Falileeva worked mainly as an etcher and lithographer, rarer as a painter (oil or pastel). She regularly exhibited: at Spring Exhibitions of St. Petersburg Academy (1910, 1913, and 1915), the 8th Exhibition of Graphic Arts of Russian and Foreign Artists (Moscow 1917), 2nd Exhibition of "The Professional Union of painters" (Moscow 1919), Exhibitions of "World of Art" ("Mir Iskusstva" - 1916, 1917, 1921 - Moscow & St. Petersburg), "ITINERANTS" ("PEREDVIZHNIKI", Moscow 1923), "Union of Russian Artists" (Moscow 1923), etc., etc.
In 1924, the family emigrated from Russia. Until 1926 the artist lived with her husband in Stockholm; from 1926 - in Berlin. from 1938 the couple permanently lived in Rome.
In her emigration period, Ekaterina Kachura-Falileeva was mainly active as a painter producing portraits and paintings with "Russian" subjects. She participated in various group exhibitions (among others, in the Exhibition of Russian Art in Berlin (1930)). Together with her husband, she held several exhibitions in Stockholm, Berlin, and Rome (1940, 1946). Her works were also shown in USSR: for example, shortly after her departure some of them were shown at the Jubilee Exhibition "Engraving Art in USSR of the last 10 years" (Moscow 1927).
Works of Ekaterina Kachura-Falileeva can be viewed in State Russian Museum in St. Petersburg, as well as in other museums.
