In the space
between projects,
disciplines and ideas
My path originates in art and has developed through study, practice, and direct engagement with projects.
I trained in Venice, where I graduated in Visual and Performing Arts at IUAV University, later completing a Master’s degree in Economics and Management of Arts and Cultural Activities at Ca’ Foscari University. During those years, I worked closely with the exhibition and curatorial field — from the Venice Biennale to galleries and independent spaces — gaining direct insight into the dynamics of artistic production.
Over time, my practice expanded into visual, editorial, and digital communication, integrating critical reading, project design, and language-building within the same processes.
In Padua, I deepened my knowledge of editorial design, and later in Milan I focused on the management of photographic and exhibition projects as well as critical writing on contemporary photography, also collaborating with the magazine Rolling Stone Black Camera.
Today I work as an independent curator and consultant, collaborating with artists and contemporary brands in Italy and abroad on the development of projects that bring together vision, structure, and communication.
FRA is me, Francesca Brunello.

"Ho avuto un'esperienza estremamente positiva con Francesca. La sua professionalità e creatività hanno reso il processo di costruzione del mio sito web artistico piacevole e senza stress. Francesca ha ascoltato attentamente le mie esigenze e ha tradotto le mie idee in un design impeccabile. Sono molto soddisfatta del risultato finale e della facilità con cui posso gestire il mio sito."

"My experience with the talented curator Francesca Brunello is extremely positive. This virtual gallery born in Milan is inclusive which means there is an open, hence the right approach to art. Art does not make judgments, it has no prejudice. On the contrary, art is permissive. Let spectators find their unique experience."
Elina M.
"Many thanks to Francesca for the excellent work, friendly advice and support during the realisation! Special thanks for the discussions and the exchange of ideas and for the particularly well formulated texts, to be able to hold the catalogue in this form is really motivating and a real pleasure."

"It's been very nice to work with my curator Francesca! The whole process was very smooth, they were always providing the necessary information and answering any questions while staying very professional! If you get the chance to work with them I definitely recommend doing so!"

"Dear Francesca, the fact that the critique you made for the artists was so accurate and your ability to read and refine a work of art so sensitively, not only as a curator, but with a great artist sensitivity, like a seer or an oracle once again led me to astonishment and admiration. As always. I am grateful to you for your ability to understand and interpret me better than I do. In this regard, you are a shining star in the art community and curation. I'm very glad we met again, I participated in this exhibition with your path and guidance.
Thank you very much for your efforts of all the details."

"Dear Francesca, greetings from Singapore. I am thinking about the many blessings I have received these past 12 months. I must declare that one of these was the opportunity to participate in your fabulous exhibition Sacrifice. I was amazed at it. So avantgarde and distinctively different from the usual virtual exhibitions that are commonplace. I really appreciate your support and professionalism in the entire process. I am very satisfied with the show. Would like to take this opportunity to thank you for your expert curatorship, kind assistance and patience."

"I just wanted to share that being included in the last show was a fabulous experience. The communication and professionalism was commendable. I worked with Francesca and she was amazing. Just wanted to say that as a full time Artist, you don't always get the kindness and support that your team delivered. I thank you for this opportunity and would love to be considered for more opportunities."
Sincerely, Lenor B.
"My fabulous curator, Francesca Brunello, is dedicated to working directly with and for me to meet my artistic goals. Francesca is always on the lookout for new and innovative art, so I always feel honored to be included in her shows with some of the latest and best art being created right now. If you want to expand your profile and reach an international audience I highly recommend that you work with Francesca."
Dolphin B.
"I have been painting just for "me" and honestly, sometimes self-doubt kicks in and I wonder if people will even like my work. To have read your critical review is ONE OF THE STRONGEST CATALYSTS for me to keep going. Your guidance, support and encouragement are giving me the positive energy to sustain my passion. I know that you have seen and reviewed countless art pieces and so, every word you say I take to heart and will value it as a human being and as an artist.
Sincerely, Roel"
