Margherita, a professional in art, design and architecture, works across various areas including production, exhibition, curating, and the development of cultural projects. She is constantly exploring and promoting new innovative and progressive thinking.
With a creative educational background, including a degree in Architecture from the Politecnico di Milano and a master's degree in Contemporary Art from the Sorbonne in Paris, Margherita adopts a multidisciplinary approach. This approach blends theoretical research, interdisciplinary knowledge, and an imagery of references between Visual Art, Architecture and Design. Margherita is particularly involved in supporting emerging talents.
Since 2012, Margherita has been the founder of It's Great Design (greatdesign.fr) a laboratory of ideas for 'making' and 'thinking' design.
Margherita opened a gallery in Paris (2014-2017) to exhibit original and unreleased research by young international designers, artists and architects. To amplify the visibility of these projects and others, she co-founded and curated the first two editions of the Lake Como Design Fair (2018-2019), a cultural project halfway between a fair and an exhibition with sections dedicated to design, architecture and graphic works.
She served as the Director of the Galerie Italienne (2005-2008), and as the head of communication, as well as editorial and cross-media projects at LAN Architecture (2008-2012). Additionally, she co-curated the MoMO Galerie with artist and photographer Romaric Tisserand (2010-2012). Since 2012, she has also been collaborating with various French and international architecture firms and artists contributing to their strategic development.
Since 2024, Margherita has been working with Parisian graphic design studio Undo-Redo, to coordinate their artistic projects and elaborate the curatorial content and identity of the studio.
From 2021 to 2024, Margherita opened a temporary exhibition space in Ragusa Ibla during the summer and launched a collection of souvenirs dedicated to the island. In December 2024, she founded the Association for Contemporary Art IN CONTEMPORANEA and inaugurated the Garage Fontana, a new permanent exhibition space in Modica.
