I Hope This Message Finds You Well, Sara Giannini (S2/Ep2)

I Hope This Message Finds You Well

I Hope This Message Finds You Well is a podcast on curating hosted by Kris Dittel and Eloise Sweetman. In this episode we talk to Sara Giannini, curator, writer and educator currently affiliated with the Amsterdam based organisation If I Can’t Dance, I Don’t Want To Be Part of Your Revolution. We discussed Sara’s approach to curating, which usually includes experimental situations and platforms that continue over time; how the loneliness of freelancing led her to take an institutional position; and the thin line between friendships and professional responsibilities. The episode was recorded in October 2021.
