Elena Mostovova is a product manager and art enthusiast who writes Art for Breakfast, a weekly newsletter making art accessible and relatable to everyone.
In this conversation, we explore how art can be a shortcut to understanding culture, why starting with contemporary work beats historical pieces, and Elena's journey from writing a personal art diary to building a public community around her writing.
We dig into practical tips for connecting with art without needing an art history degree, how to navigate galleries as a beginner, plus specific gallery recommendations for Berlin and New York, as well as why emotional connection matters more than market value when it comes to both art as well as sharing your own work.
