Photo by Naomi Rea. What do you guys do?  Luca: I’m an art critic, curator, and artistic director at the Asger Jorn (http://www.artnet.com/artists/asger-jorn/) House Museum in Albissola. Do you know Asger Jorn? He’s a Danish artist. And Andrea here is an artist too, a sculptor. What’s the best thing you’ve seen so far at the fair? Luca: I really liked the Paul McCarthy presentation at Hauser & Wirth’s booth, it’s something special. And the artist showing at Z2o Sara Zanin, Evgeny Antufiev, you’ll see the booth, it ’s completely brown. It must be hard work navigating a busy art fair on crutches. What happened?  This morning I turned my ankle on the subway. I had to go to the hospital, so I’d like to thank all the wonderful doctors who made my being here today possible.

Have you seen anything you like so far?  Gian: We’ve just arrived but walking around, I’ve been focusing on photography, I liked the Gabriele Basilico works in Enrico Astuni gallery. And I really appreciate the new proposals in the emergent s ector, the galleries from Bucharest [gaep/Eastwards Prospectus] and Budapest [Horizont Galeria]. I also really liked the 1960s Maria Lai works in the “decades” section. She’s an author [and textile artist] who died in 2013, but her work has been recently rediscovered by the museum director Lorenzo Giusti. He staged one of the first exhibitions of her works in Bergamo. I really appreciate it. foglio sheet 5/6 A 05/04/2019 web web
