about
Photography and philosophy define my being to the world.
Professionally, I have been active in the field of contemporary art, whether in relation to health, science, or education. I have directed art programs and institutions, curated many exhibitions, edited books, filed archives and created anarchives.
What matters to me is to stay close to the intention of the artist and focus on the meaning of the artwork, as it is an instrument for the transformation of the world.
I have studied photography at the International Center of Photography in New York and history of art at the University College of London before learning hands-on exemplary curatorial practices working at the Museum of Modern Art. I lead independent curatorial projects for many years and worked for galleries and institutions, gathering experience in project management and funding, handling large collections and addressing the question of the archive, as well as developing educational programs.
Searching to understand the perceptual impact of electronic images on our consciousness has been the focus of my doctoral thesis. Conflicts about the precedence of text over image is a false dilemma covering up the politics of knowledge, to understand images as articulations of thoughts is about establishing a blueprint for its reversal.
