Geraldine Guardia

Director of Development

Géraldine Guardia is a trilingual cultural manager and exhibition strategist whose work moves fluidly between logistics, storytelling, and community engagement across the Americas and Europe. Her practice sits at the intersection of art and infrastructure — the quiet, exacting labor that brings exhibitions, murals, and public programs vividly to life. She currently coordinates activities and grant applications at Unchained Mothering in Miami, and as Artistic Project Director for Open Walls, led the creative and logistical direction of a large-scale mural project at a Miami elementary school, forging partnerships with school districts, the Chilean consulate, and cultural foundations. Her formative years were shaped by her tenure as Senior Supervisor of Cultural Projects at Chile’s Ministry of Cultures, Arts and Heritage, where she oversaw a national portfolio of public art initiatives and trained project leaders across the country. Earlier, she coordinated international festival logistics for audiovisual works at Cannes, Berlinale, and Ventana Sur; directed exhibitions of Chilean cinema, including at Expo Shanghai; and led an arts workshop for Save the Children in Lebanon. She holds a Master’s in Art and Politics from New York University and a degree in Journalism from the Universidad de Chile.
