An Interview with Paula Valero: Resistant Herbarium Rosa Luxemburg (Mothers) at Vino Vero Venice
As part of My Art Guides’ ongoing series of dialogues with artists featured in the Vetrina project at Vino Vero Venice, we are pleased to present an interview with Valencia-based multidisciplinary artist Paula Valero.
Curated by Mara Sartore, the Vetrina project transforms the display window of Vino Vero into a dynamic space for contemporary art, inviting female artists to explore themes of activism and care. For the twelfth iteration of the series, Paula Valero presents Resistant Herbarium Rosa Luxemburg: Mothers, a site-specific installation celebrating women who embody diverse forms of motherhood—biological, political, and creative.
In this conversation, Paula reflects on her artistic practice, the enduring legacy of Rosa Luxemburg, her choice to focus on motherhood for Vetrina, and the unique challenges and opportunities of creating art in Venice’s historic and cultural context.
