Listen "Discovering Public Art with Federica Beretta"
Episode Synopsis
In this episode, my guest is the gallery director Federica Beretta.
Director of the international London based Opera Gallery, Federica is also a journalist from Italy who moved to London few years ago for her studies in Cultural Management.
She stayed in the big city since to the point of becoming a real Londoner. Very fast, very busy.
She offered me a coffee as soon as I entered her apartment, last October, in central London. Even though she says she doesn’t drink any because « otherwise she wouldn’t sleep for the next 10 days ».
Besides her work as the director of Opera Gallery in London, Federica writes for arts magazines such as the cover of Frieze Art Fair for Art Tribune and Art Life. With her delicious Italian accent, Federica talks with a smile about her passion for journalism, the arts world, public arts and the must seen exhibitions in London. But we also talk about Brexit and the arts market, her love for her home country Italy, and the power of listening to others.
The free public installation of Anthony James at Marble Arch in London will be on view until the 9th of January 2022. You can follow Federica beretta on instagram at federicaberetta90 and on twitter at berettafederic8 and if you have’t done yet, you can check Opera Gallery’s latest exhibitions at operagallery.com or on social media at opera gallery.
