Join Umbrella's Gallery Manager and Curator Daniel Qualischefski for a session providing writing conventions for artist texts paired with strategies and advice for artists.
Artist participants will be guided to represent their work favourably and appropriately. Daniel will guide participants through Umbrella's exhibition application web page, noting the similarities and differences with other galleries’ application processes. Participants will also be guided with standard information to include for artist CVs, biographies and artist statements, along with tips for exhibition statements and proposals.
Participants are encouraged to bring their own notepads and pens or laptops and any relevant images of or texts about their artwork or CVs to make notes on. Umbrella recommends attending this workshop if you are considering applying for an exhibition at Umbrella (application deadline midnight Sunday 6 October 2024) or elsewhere, or promoting your artwork online.
