What is an art advisor? Guest #1: Liberté Nuti

Yes! We have our first guest on the podcast, art advisor Liberté Nuti. As often happens in the art world, we are not always familiar with each other's jobs. And forget telling people you are a podcaster! (People think you are an influencer selling hair products online.) So let's start to dismantle some myths and find out more about what it is that us intermediaries of the art world do.

Joana goes on this quest on her own this time, as Emily is on sick leave, and it is Joana's expertise after all, to interview people and do talks about art topics.

Joana asks Liberté about all theses things and ends the conversation on the topic of dream exhibitions. What are they? How do they impact our lives and why?
