Sarah Galmuzzi: Educating Through Art, from Children to Adults

Sarah Galmuzzi, creator of the popular Facebook page 'L’arte contemporanea raccontata ai bambini' (Contemporary Art Explained to Children), has expanded her audience from children to adults. Based in Naples, she now focuses on adult readers who approach art with little prior knowledge, using an emotional rather than intellectual approach. Galmuzzi emphasizes that art is a means to explore human depths, often drawing from personal reactions to artworks rather than current events. She recently visited Milan to see exhibitions by Valerio Berruti and Leonora Carrington, and recommends a show at Galleria Andrea Nuovo in Naples featuring Paolo La Motta, a painter she praises for his use of local materials like tuff and bitumen. Galmuzzi believes that art can make people better by encouraging observation and wonder, though she is unsure if it can heal. The interview, conducted by Annalisa Trasatti, was published on Artribune.
