Monica Salazar and Anna Russ are the founders and publishers of Berlin Art Link magazine and founders and producers of MONA, a creative consulting and production company based in Berlin. In over a decade of realizing art-focused exhibitions, events, and video productions, Salazar and Russ have worked with leading museums, galleries, artists, universities, biennials and art fairs, as well as corporate and private clients around the globe.

In 2010, Salazar and Russ created Berlin Art Link Online Magazine, which offers a multi-faceted view of the art world through the stories of some of the most compelling and influential creatives and exhibitions around the globe. With an ever-growing audience and correspondents located in cities throughout North America, Europe, the Middle East and Asia, Berlin Art Link has served as a popular resource for discovering the best of visual art, design, music and film from a contemporary art perspective.

Through MONA, Russ and Salazar have bridged the gap between the art world and the public sphere to produce culturally dynamic media content and event productions. Recent selected MONA projects included organising art programming, media and event production for clients at AURORA 2018 (Dallas), the British Pavilion (Venice Art Biennale), Design Miami/, Frieze London and the Dhaka Art Summit.
