I delight the air I breath in Paris. And Buenos Aires is part of myself, of course. But it's not so close to me in an active way. If you need adresses I'll try to provide you some helping hand.
A free curator is a person who creates artistic event in a temporary labour relationship with museums, art fairs, gallery etc. I work with these partners just for a single event, to develop a concept. I don't have any long-term dependency and I create my conditions of work.
What about you and your art?

I'm a free curator based in Paris. Amongst several things, I created the Festival de Lutèce in Paris; I had an art gallery in the Marais sometime ago; I produce the cultural image of Café de Colombia in France. I curated, produced and wrote about Latin American baroque art, contemporary photography, sacred music, and I always flaring the world looking for the acknowledgement of some sensitivity.
I was attracted by your images. Even if the media is not the best, I can distinguish them. I want to know them better, I want more of.
