Margherita Morgantin, visual artist based in Milan, was born in Venice where she graduated in Architecture at the I.U.A.V., researching on systems for forecasting natural light. Her work is articulated through different languages, ranging from drawing and installation to performance, moving on a thread that connects language, philosophy, mathematics and visual culture. Contact and cohabitation, observation and imagination, are the open intervals that characterize the work of Morgantin.
She has participated in contemporary art exhibitions in Italy and abroad, and carried out special actions and projects in different contexts. She has published several books of short texts and drawings. Since 2013 she also works as Pawel und Pavel, a collaborative project on writing and performance with Italo Zuffi. She has collaborated with visual and sound artists, choreographers including Michele Di Stefano/mk, Roberta Mosca, Richard Crow,
Mattin,
Alice Guareschi, and with the Diotima women philosophical collective. She teaches artistic anatomy and semiology of the body at Brera Accademy of Fine Arts in Milan.
