<sub>Sergey Kantsedal is a curator based in Torino. His practice has been shaped over a decade of institutional work and independent collaborations across Turin, Milan and Kyiv. Operating at the intersection of visual art, performance, and fashion, his curatorial research unfolds through exhibitions, live formats, estate works, and collaborative projects shaped in close dialogue with artists from different generations and career stages. His curatorial practice is grounded in community-oriented formats and explores alternative ways of engaging with identity, subjectivity, and sociability.

Over the years, Kantsedal has collaborated with public and private institutions in Italy and internationally. Since 2018, he has been running Associazione Barriera, a non-profit institution in Turin founded by a group of collectors. In Italy, he has also worked with Fondazione Sandretto Re Rebaudengo, OGR Officine Grandi Riparazioni, and Artissima in Turin; Triennale Milano, MUDEC, and Fabbrica del Vapore in Milan; Lateral in Rome; Cittadellarte – Fondazione Pistoletto in Biella; and MAMbo in Bologna, among others. His international collaborations include Salzburger Kunstverein in Salzburg, Cité internationale des arts in Paris, ArchBucarest in Bucharest, PinchukArtCentre, and the National Art Museum of Ukraine in Kyiv.

He graduated from the State Academy of Design and Arts in Kharkiv. He participated in MEDITERRANEA 18 – Young Artists Biennial in Tirana and the transnational research program A Natural Oasis? (San Marino, Kosovo, Montenegro, and Malta). He also attended the Third Moscow Curatorial Summer School, organised by the V–A–C Foundation, and the CAMPO curatorial practices course at Fondazione Sandretto Re Rebaudengo in Turin (2015–2016).
