“Contemporary Stories – Visual Arts, Writings, Societies”
Studio Poerio 16/B Researching and Archiving
coordinator Anna Cochetti
Conceived by Anna Cochetti, independent curator, the Project “Contemporary Stories - Visual Arts, Writings, Societies”, was launched in June 2012 and hosted in the private space Studio Poerio 16/B Researching and Archiving.
Situated in the heart of Rome-Monteverdevecchio (via Poerio 16/b), it is, on one hand, a place (and a brand) for researching, archiving, storytelling and self-made publishing and, on the other hand, an 15 years-old curatorial project that promotes and hosts exhibitions and shows.
