Eva Scurto (Rome, 1990) was trained at Sapienza - University of Rome, obtaining in 2013 the Bachelor's Degree in Historical-Artistic Sciences (under the supervision of Prof. Claudia Cieri Via) and in 2015 the Master Degree in History of Art (under the guidance of Prof. Marco Ruffini), both with full marks and honours. In 2015 she won the “path of excellence”, a university programme that aims to enhance the training of particularly worthy students. In the same university, she won the scholarship for School of Specialization in Historical-Artistic Heritage, where she graduated in 2019 with honours (under the supervision of Prof. Valter Curzi). In October 2020 she won a scholarship for the XXXVI cycle of the PhD in Art History, with a project dedicated to the historical-artistic writings of the scholar Francesco Bocchi (Florence, 1548-1613/18).
Since 2016 she is expert in the subject in History of Art Criticism (L-ART / 04).
During her formation, she collaborated with the Capitoline Picture Gallery (2014-15) and the Barberini and Corsini National Galleries (2016-17), carrying out historical-bibliographic updating of the catalogue entries, and with the Palazzo Braschi – Museo di Roma (2018), where she studied the sixteenth-century graffiti from the house of Rodolfo Pio da Carpi.
In 2017 she participated profitably in the training course on the use of the SIGEC Web system, at the Central Institute for Catalog and Documentation - ICCD of Rome, and the following year to a fundraising specialization course for cultural institutions.
In 2018 she was co-curator of the exhibition “Litografia Bulla. Un viaggio di duecento anni fra arte e tecnica”, held at Palazzo Poli-Central Institute for Graphics in Rome (20 April - 1 July 2018), dealing with the section dedicated to Artists’ Books. In the same year she was speaker at the round table “Crono-Logiche: una rilettura degli anni ‘60 in Italia. Riflessioni sulle declinazioni del termine pop nel contesto culturale italiano”, included in the program of the Special Days of Contemporary Culture of the GAM - Gallery of Modern Art of Rome.
