In the «How to Present Your Work» talk, we’ll explore effective strategies for showcasing your art. We’ll talk about how to organise exhibitions to display your pieces professionally, conduct engaging studio visits to offer personal insights into your creative process, and participate in open calls to expand your reach and opportunities. Additionally, we’ll cover the importance of crafting a compelling artist bio and statement, developing a user-friendly website, providing detailed information about your artworks, and leveraging social media platforms to connect with a broader audience.
In the upcoming «Artist’s Career» talks, we’ll delve into effective strategies for presenting and promoting your artwork. The first session, «How to Present Your Work,» will cover organising exhibitions, conducting engaging studio visits, participating in open calls, and crafting compelling artist bios, statements, and websites. The second session, «How to Promote Your Work,» will focus on leveraging exhibitions, utilising social media and newsletters, and networking with diverse organisations, including those beyond the art world, to enhance your art’s visibility.
