CURATORIAL WRITING & INTERNATIONAL PRESS
Behind the Practice: Blair Russell
Greta Zuccali — Curator, Art Consultant & Founder of Hub/Art Exhibition
Barcelona / Milan, Europe · August 2026
Italian-born curator and art consultant Greta Zuccali, founder of Hub/Art Exhibition, presents an in-depth interview and examination of B.E. Russell’s artistic practice in her Inside the Art Market publication.
With a background spanning art-market management, curatorial practice, art consultancy, exhibition development, market research, and critical writing, Zuccali brings a professional art-market perspective to her conversation with Russell, exploring his approach to contemporary abstract painting, his creative process, the development of his artistic practice, and his relationship with collectors and the broader art market.
Zuccali holds a law degree from the Università Cattolica in Milan, where she wrote her thesis on insurance law for artworks, and a Master’s in Art Market Management from EAC École de l’Art, Culture, Luxe in Paris. In 2017, she founded Hub/Art Exhibition, a consultancy specializing in exhibition curation, market research and analysis, and assistance to artists, galleries, collectors, and institutions. Today, Hub/Art operates a dedicated exhibition space in Barcelona, presenting exhibitions and cultural events throughout the year.
“What makes the Russell case worth attention isn’t that it’s a purer alternative to the gallery-centric system, but that it shows a market can hold together on simple, stated rules without giving up room to grow over time.”
