Marialaura Ghidini

Marialaura Ghidini is a curator, researcher and writer based in Newcastle upon Tyne.

She has been working with Grand Union since September 2010 and curated the residency programme 'Search Engine', along with other collaborative events and projects.
She is founder and director of the web-based curatorial platform www.or-bits.com, a project devoted to promoting practices and dialogues across and beyond media and exploring the creative and critical possibilities of the web as a language, medium and subject.

Marialaura is currently a PhD researcher on an AHRC studentship with CRUMB (Curatorial Resource for Upstart Media Bliss) at the University of Sunderland, researching in the field of online curating with a specific interest in the theory and practice of artistic and curatorial work operating between the online and offline dimensions.

Over the years, Marialaura has organised and coordinated a variety of curatorial projects independently and collaboratively, from film screenings to sound performances and workshops, at venues like James Taylor Gallery ('Back and Forth. And all over again', 'screen-play'; 2009), Tate Britain ('Brilliant Noise'; 2008), Tate Modern (curated series of web podcasts for the 'Tate Summer Institute - Screens and Holes'; 2010) and The Showroom Gallery ('Veiled Conversation No. 9' curated by Sound Threshold) in London.
