Aurora Piedigrossi

is an emerging curator and independent writer working at the intersection of contemporary practices, visual cultures, and collective processes, with a research focus on social, historical, anthropological, and underground themes and on the dynamics between bodies, spaces, and communities. She studied Modern Literature at the Università Cattolica del Sacro Cuore in Milan and later earned a Master's in Visual Cultures and Curatorial Practices at the Accademia di Belle Arti di Brera, with a thesis on postcolonialism in Brazil starting from Oswald de Andrade's Anthropophagic Manifesto, complemented by an Erasmus exchange at Paris 8 Vincennes–Saint-Denis and the Campo25 course at the Fondazione Sandretto Re Rebaudengo in Turin. She has collaborated with institutions including the Institut du Monde Arabe, the Centre Pompidou, Le 6b, and Magnum Photos, and works as co-curator and contributor across exhibition and editorial projects, with a particular interest in the archive as a living space for narration and critical activation. Since January 2026 she has been an art contributor for COEVAL magazine.
