Christie van der Haak on More is More

Here's one of the art talk shows we hosted during UNTITLED, Art on Miami Beach, December 2016, via Wynwood Radio. We’re thrilled to add our energy to an art fair that’s more of an international exhibition than any other we’ve encountered. In this segment, you'll hear host Cathy Byrd in conversation with Christie van der Haak, Sharon Aponte Misdea, and Silvia Barisione.

 

Christie van der Haak is from The Hague, the Netherlands, studied design and fashion before becoming a painter interested in high color and decorative patterns. Her intricate and colorful patterns and designs are translated into tapestries and wall coverings, often creating immersive environments.

Sharon Aponte Misdea is Deputy director of collections and curatorial affairs at the Wolfsonian, dedicates herself to the preservation and interpretation of the modern design museum’s collection.

Silvia Barisione is a curator at The Wolfsonian whose research focuses primarily on 20th century design and prewar Italian architecture. She is curator of the Modern Dutch Design exhibition at The Wolfsonian.
