Lucrezia Calabrò Visconti

She is an independent curator currently living in Italy. She gained education at De Appel, Amsterdam; CAMPO12, Fondazione Sandretto Re Rebaudengo, Torino; graduated in Visual Arts and Theatre at IUAV, Venezia and pursued curatorial training at Artists Space, New York.

In her independent practice, she develops research-based exhibitions and public programmes, often engaging in long-term collective projects with a hybrid form. Her research is rooted in the attempt to initiate shared practices of knowledge production, articulate bodies of research and activate learning processes, expanding and experimenting with the traditional format of object-based exhibitions. Her work as a cultural producer ultimately aims at establishing cross-disciplinary dialogues that can be relevant to collectively shape the conditions of the contemporary, since she is firmly convinced that cultural institutions can develop the platforms in which it is possible to embody, historically and politically, these conditions. She sees the curatorial practice as an expanded field with porous boundaries, through which we can aim at transforming contemporary protocols of consumption in situated practices of autonomy.
