Ursina Gabriela Roesch (sier)
Director, Founder, Project Leader, Artist – zrh/ch

​

Ursina Gabriela Roesch, aka urgart, understands art as a subversive and socio-political medium, creating multimedia conceptual works that spark discourse. Shaped early by the global art world, Roesch was driven to address persistent gender inequality in the arts and founded FATart. In 2016 she curated the groundbreaking exhibition 144 Zürcher Künstlerinnen, whose success led to the creation of the initiative FAT (Famous Artist Table) – now a leading Swiss art association advocating equal inclusion of FLINTA in the art world. With the internationally acclaimed FATart FAIR, Europe’s first art fair and exhibition platform dedicated to FLINTA, she launched an exceptional project that resonates far beyond the feminist art scene. Alongside this commitment, her focus remains on her own artworks as well as cooperative projects and commissions.

Noëlle Berger (she/her)

actuary and treasurer
zh/ch

 

Noëlle Berg (artist's name) is a woman and an artist and does not want to endure, but to act. To expose social conditioning and reference culture with bold poses drive her. The resulting work seeks to enrapture and disrupt, and in hindsight, seduce us to think of things differently and open our eyes to the beautiful and the possible. The engagement for FAT offers Noëlle Berg another opportunity to stand up for these values and concerns. www.noelle-berg.kleio.com

"I like people, find injustice unbearable and want to learn more about art. Being a board woman is a great way to combine all that."

​

Lisa grew up in the countryside and has been at home on, by and in the water ever since. She has been working for a consulting firm for more than ten years and deals daily with redirecting rusty structures into flowing processes.

Maja holds a Bachelor's degree in Culture, Criticism and Curation from CSM London.

From an early age she was interested in art, but was always disappointed when the number of artists and FLINTAs in art exhibitions could be counted on one hand. In summer 2021, she joined FATart to support socially engaged curatorial work, which represents an essential step towards an inclusive art world.
