In this 3-part workshop series, participants will explore the essential skills needed to document, curate, and present photographic artwork professionally. The series begins with a hands-on session on documenting artwork, where you'll learn to use available and studio lighting to capture high-quality images of both flat and three-dimensional works. The second workshop delves into installation strategies, emphasizing how to creatively use space to enhance the impact of photographic displays, with a focus on contemporary photo-based practices. The final session, led by a gallery director, offers insider knowledge on navigating the art market, assembling a portfolio, and preparing work for exhibition and sale. This comprehensive series equips emerging photographers with the tools they need to connect their work with a broader audience.

You can register for individual workshops, or all three by selecting the course fee.
