Analize Nicolini's curatorial approach places the artwork at the center of the curatorial process, seeking to transcend traditional exhibition systems and engage the spectator in a transformative encounter with the artwork. Through this approach, she aims to create a space where the spectator is encouraged to engage with the artwork on a deeper level and reflect upon their own perceptions and experiences. By breaking down the barriers between the artwork and the spectator, Analize's curatorial practice promotes a more inclusive and participatory approach to art, encouraging a dialogue that is capable of transforming both the spectator and the artwork itself. Her goal is to create exhibitions that not only challenge viewers aesthetically but also stimulate meaningful conversations around important social and environmental issues.
In 2019, Analize founded BraSA+ (acronym for Brazil and South America), a platform that researches, promotes, exhibits, and distributes contemporary South American artworks based on lenses, integrated and digital media, and technologies. The platform's objective is to provide visibility to South American artists and expand the dialogue surrounding their work.
Analize began her curatorial studies in 2011 at the University of the Arts of London (UAL) and specialized in Criticism and Curation of Modern and Contemporary Art at the Escola de Artes Visuais do Parque Lage in Rio de Janeiro (2018-19). She further deepened her curatorial practice studies at the School for Curatorial Practices in Venice (2019) and the program in Inclusive Curatorial Practices: Accessibility, Representation, and Diversity (2022) promoted by the NODE Center (Berlin). Currently, Analize is attending the Master's program in Environmental Humanities at the Università Ca' Foscari in Venice, where she is exploring the question of whether art can change behaviors.
