17/05/19, 14*54 Meet the miart Early Birds: 10 Fairgoers Share Their Highlights of Milan's International Art Fair | artnet News Pagina 4 di 7 https://news.artnet.com/art-world/meet-the-people-of-miart-1509460 great work done by [miart’s artistic director] Alessandro Rabottini to put together two artists you wouldn’t expect, it shows a really good quality of curation. What are you looking at here? This is Liliana Moro, who is one of the three artists who will be showing at the Italian pavilion in Venice this year. Francesco Pantelone: It’s hard to summarize Liliana’s practice, she works with lots of different materials, and often her work is shown on the floor, but it’s something that’s very hard to put words to. Do you know what she will be showing in Venice? Francesco: Of course I do, we’ve represented her for about 10 years now, but I don’t think I’m supposed to talk about it. All I can say is that she will be showing a selection of older works and one new work, all very heterogeneous works. Diana Pfammatter Diana Pfammatter. Photo by Naomi Rea. Where are you from? I’m originally from Switzerland but I live in Frankfurt in Germany now. Is this your first time in miart? Yes, but I’ve been to other fairs. I know Art Basel, and I’ve been to Frieze. My boyfriend works as a curator in contemporary art, so I like to take a few days off and join him sometimes. It’s a holiday for me now but he is working, so it’s business for him. What do you do? I’m a photographer. Do you have something to do with art? Well, sort of. I’m not an art photographer though, I do mostly commercial stuff. But I do have some artist friends and sometimes it mixes in, so my work is linked to art but I don’t make art. What has stood out to you so far at miart? I’ve only been here for about 10 minutes but so far I really liked the Lucas Hirsch booth in the emergent section, it’s a Düsseldorf gallery, and Felix Gaudlitz. They’re from Vienna. I also really quite like this booth [Z2o Sara Zanin]. The funny thing is that often when I know gallerists, it’s easier to make a connection to the art. A gallerist who is happy to explain and walk you through is really helpful for that. But I pretty much decide what I like on a visual level, not so much a curatorial one. Anything that prompts a reaction, that makes me curious.
