writing

© 2013, Emanuel de Sousa Fernandes (sketch)

I'm an avid and productive curator and critic with a demonstrated agile intellect. Base in London, but covering the world, since 2006, I have been publishing (print and/or online) articles on contemporary art and reviewing contemporary art exhibitions, festival, biennials and auctions, as well engaging in writing performances.
