Helen Homan Wu
Born in Hong Kong, Helen grew up in New York’s downtown and Brooklyn, being surrounded by artists and musicians. Her father was a Chinese classical musician for the largest Chinese music ensemble on the east coast, therefore she grew up surrounded by classical musicians and opera performers. She graduated with a communication design and fine arts degree in NYC and studied abroad in London and Kyoto in the late 90s to early 2000. After working in the advertising industry for a short time, she turned her attention to the contemporary art world, curating art and producing projects for institutions such as Art Basel, the Smithsonian, Mercedes-Benz, MutualArt Group, among others. From there she ventured off to founding a successful luxury travel agency, Curagenda. Curagenda has been producing cultural programming, exhibitions, and events at their previous Madison Avenue headquarters in New York City, engaging local and international communities.
