Silvia Barisione
La Curatrice DJ
I was appointed curator at The Wolfsonian–FIU in Miami Beach in 2011. Previously I was curator at the Wolfsoniana in Genoa. My research focuses primarily on 20th century design and prewar Italian architecture. In this field I have curated or co-curated numerous exhibitions and written several publications on the subject.
When I am not working, I go to openings, exhibitions, movies, performances and concerts. I also dj from time to time. In Miami, I enjoy the beach life. Travel, generally is work related.
I accepted the job offer at The Wolfsonian in order to experience life in the United States.
Crossing the bay.
Because I work at The Wolfsonian and I love its Mediterranean Revival architecture and, naturally, its interiors. The rain made me choose this outfit.
I think it is interesting to try to redefine an Italian identity, if we still have one!
As an Italian I am confident that I have a strong cultural heritage that I enjoy sharing. And also I enjoy hearing and experiencing from other cultures.
