Simone Rudolph is an art historian, who works as assistant to the director at the Salzburg International Summer Academy of Fine Arts. She is currently working on a project, called Global Academy, which concentrates on art scenes around the globe and asks questions, such as: under which conditions is art produced today? What kind of institutions exist in other regions? How do we learn and teach art in a globalized world, apart from the institutionalized scene? The project started in 2016 and will continue for at least the next two years. Simone has experience in organizing and curating several exhibitions and projects within the cultural sector.
She studied art history and German literature in Bochum and Bologna and held a scholarship for a postgraduate curatorial studies program.
