Tina Ziegler - author, curator and art addict.
Tina Ziegler is a curator, first time author and addicted art blogger. Born in California in 1985, she was heavily influenced by graffiti and underground art. With a desire to travel she moved to Barcelona, Spain, where she graduated from a private design institute with a degree in Marketing and Communication. Throughout her time spent in the EU she has continued to maintain strong ties to the growing Los Angeles contemporary art culture as well as establishing a valuable network throughout Europe.
Currently residing in London, UK, Tina is the manager and curator for London Miles Gallery (http://www.londonmiles.com), the premiere London-based pop surrealist and lowbrow contemporary art gallery. She has become a valuable curator in exhibiting American artists for the first time on foreign land and has made it her mission to help promote and support the art and artist she loves across the globe. She has curated and assisted art exhibitions in Los Angeles, San Francisco, Seattle, Barcelona and London. As well as being a full time curator, she is director of Hunt & Gather Art (http://www.huntandgatherart.com), a contemporary art blog with a large global following.
