Maria Garzia
Italy
Program YCI 2008 participant (recommended by Yves Aupetittallot)
Maria Garzia received a specialist degree in the History of Contemporary Art at La Sapienza University, Rome with her thesis on Brown Boveri- the result of a period of study in Milan. After studying for one year at the Sorbonne, Paris, she participated in the activities of various institutions in Rome including the Fondazione Baruchello and the Fondazione Volume! Her main interest is the relationship between art and public space. This interest developed during her involvement in the project Tra-Monti organized by the Associazione 270gg and through the realization of a project of public art, L'impercettibilità della visione, with the artist Marina Fulgeri and the Associazione Wunderkammern. She has recently finished her international training as a curator at the Ecole du Magasin, Grenoble. At present she is working on a publication project which developed through research conducted on the situation of curators in Italy.
