Session I: Contemporary Art & How to Begin Collecting
What does "contemporary" actually mean? How do collectors think? And how do you go from admiring art to owning it? This is the foundation. The perfect moment to make your first (or next!) acquisition. Works by Clifford Bertin will be on view.
Session II: Gallery & Market Perspectives
This session breaks down how those at the forefront of the industry get art from studios around the world, and into private collections and museums. How do galleries and artists work together? How does work get priced? How do gallerists build relationships with collectors? How do those from outside the gallery structure work in the industry, and when is it time to work independently?
Session III: Curator-Led Exhibition Tour
Jenée-Daria Strand, Assistant Curator of Public Art Fund, will provide an exhibition tour of Woody De Othello: Guardian Spirit, before elaborating on her own curatorial practice and how she collaborates with artists from her vantag point as a curator. A Q&A will follow.
Session IV: Artist Talk
What informs an artist's practice? How do they navigate the art market? Hear directly from the source with artists in dialogue. Details to be announced.
About
Summer School is a four-session conversation series where emerging and seasoned collectors, the curious, and the culture-obsessed come together to learn, connect, and deepen their understanding of art and the industry.
Each session runs as an interactive talk with art world experts, designed for people who are done feeling like they need an art degree to participate. You'll leave with the vocabulary, the framework, and the confidence to engage with art on your own terms.
Pick and choose which sessions speak to you, or attend all four.
Why
Summer School exists because New York City is full of people who go to openings, follow artists online, and feel something when they see great work, but don't know what to do next, and are ready to learn more. Art shouldn’t be exclusive, so we built this for you.
