Learn to navigate the whys and how’s of sharing our work in this lively and critical workshop with Sonia Brewin.
In today’s art work, artists have a wide range of options to show their work. Ideal for those with an existing studio practice, this three-session course will be highly interactive and involve personal reflections and robust discussions about career ambitions. The course aims to invigorate our knowledge of gallery systems and address the important need for visibility, validation, risk-taking, networking and money. In the final session, the relevant contemporary context in which participants are creating and intending to share their work. Sonia will help attendees make individual 'tool-kits' for medium and longer term success that can give them the push they need to further their professional practice.
The workshop is perfect for emerging artists who are seeking to navigate the art world with expert guidance.
