Bio
Giuseppe Oliverio (b. Bologna, 1985) is an Italian entrepreneur, curator and filmmaker. In 2012 he founded phmuseum.com, a curated online platform dedicated to contemporary photography based in London. Nowadays the project presents bimonthly online exhibitions, features the work of 5,000 selected photographers, and connects them with photo editors and curators worldwide. Recently they also launched an online educational program, offering one-to-one portfolio reviews, consultancies, and mentorships with internationally recognized professors. PHmuseum is also known for its Grants aimed at financing and promoting photographers and their projects. Only in 2018 it offered £25,000 in cash prizes, plus other relevant opportunities such as a solo show at Cortona On The Move, features on Vogue Italia, and a nomination for the World Press Photo’s Joop Swart Masterclass. Former jury members include Roger Ballen, Sarah Leen (National Geographic), Martin Parr (Magnum Photos), Pamela Chen (Instagram), and Alessia Glaviano (Vogue Italia). Giuseppe worked as a portfolio reviewer at many events including Cortona On The Move, Photo Vogue Festival, Verzasca Foto, SI Fest, and for Magnum Photos at Visa Pour L’Image in Perpignan. He was in the jury of international awards like Gomma Grant, Happiness Onthemove, The Fence, Reminders Photography Stronghold and Viewbook Grant. He gave talks and joined panels at international festivals like Photoville in New York, Paraty Em Foco in Brazil, and Ojo de Pez Meeting in Barcelona. He also wrote a series of articles on Latin American photography for TIME magazine. His first documentary A Conscious Dream was selected to 12 film festivals across Europe, USA and Latin America and awarded best documentary short at 2016 Manchester International Film Festival. His second project, A Land, is currently premiering at film festivals.

When I enrolled with the PhMuseum mentorship programme, I had expected a session that would provoke ideas to move my work forward. The feedback I received was provided on a specific body of work, discussing each piece in detail. My experience surpassed my expectations and helped me to develop my work further.
