Silvia Guerra, is a Portuguese-born curator living in France. She has been developing her practice around the nearness of art fields, either visual arts and poetry, architecture and art, or radio and art. She started her practice as an actress and theater director and with Metaphoria exhibitions series she explored to have actors as part of an exhibition, and continues to explore the displacement and movement inside the art scene. Guerra is the artistic director of Lab’Bel, a position she has held for more than ten years.
Lab’Bel is an endowment fund created in spring 2010 to support and contribute to the development of artistic creation. The activities of this laboratory of ideas and impertinent innovation are shared between the development of a contemporary art collection - now on long-term loan at the Musée des Beaux Arts in Dole - and the organization of exhibitions and artistic events throughout France and Europe. Lab’Bel is also behind a series of performative multidisciplinary projects ranging from modernist architecture to poetry or music. Director : Laurent Fiévet
