The deeper layers of Modern & Contemporary Art, brought to you by Silvia Possanza
Art reflects how the world is changing, and pushes us to be part of it.
When Silvia saw a Matisse painting for the first time, her life changed forever. Like lifting a veil, she discovered a whole new universe beyond the canvas – and the emotions and stories a piece of art represents. Her curiosity to understand and celebrate this dimension inspired an exciting career path in modern and contemporary art. Her bachelor’s degree in Art History was followed by a master’s in Art and Business at Sotheby's Institute of Art. She hit the ground running with a job at a historical Italian publisher. In the decade that followed, Silvia became the senior specialist for Modern and Contemporary Art at renowned auction house Finarte, where she also headed the Prints and Multiples Department. Silvia’s extensive knowledge ranges from curating artworks, to a deep understanding of artistic techniques and creative processes, to dealing art internationally. Whether buyer or seller, find her in the Modern & Contemporary Art category for her guidance and inspiring auctions.
