Studio/Parlor

e form of exhibitions, publications, talks etc according to the topic and artists. We are dedicated to supporting the artists we present with a group curatorial process. Studio/Parlor stems from the idea to find different means of showing work, whilst trying to adapt to the city's vibrant and crowded art scene. Past projects can be found on this website. Studio/Parlor is run by Jean Feline (Artist), Victoria Genzini (Curator) and Polly Wright (Curator)
