Excited to announce that I'll be giving portfolio reviews for @voguemagazine this October. I wished I had more mentors when starting my career in visual arts. Artists: apply!

How to promote your photography in the art world is the title of a two day workshop I used to deliver at the visual arts association in Berlin (bbk Berlin).

Wish there was a list of every international photography festival, photography art fair & photo book event?

One you can filter by portfolio review, workshops & open calls?

As well as the continent, country & city it takes place, & what time of year?

Hello to academics out there, please RT. Fancy collaborating on a participatory photography project? I’m searching for a soc sci pal for this aim “develop and test new resources to communicate social science to target audiences (e.g. videos, infographics)” 🤞🙌

Photo books have exploded in the past 20 years thanks to the internet & the self publishing revolution.

Despite the saturation of photo books in the market place, they are still one of the best ways for emerging photographers to put their work out there & gain recognition.

3 common mistakes inexperienced artists make trying to get their work into a gallery.

All artists dream about exhibiting their work and seeing it on the walls of a gallery. For many artists this is the difference between a hobby and being a serious artist.

The Philippine photoland model in a nutshell. The amount of “hey man have you seen this work?” I send to people or being asked of me is a huge number. Especially for a society running on smooth interpersonal relationship, this is the way 🫡📸📖

There is one book I wish I read before open an art gallery.

Published in 2008, it explains how "the least transparent and least regulated major commercial activity in the world." actually operates.

[Mary M. Walsh Art Advisory @MaryMWalsh]

The work of Georgina Adam and the documentary by Nathaniel Kahn are very good recommendations! (Of Don Thompson's book, I don't know enough to say.)

Artist's from Aotearoa / New Zealand it's in your best interest to keep @ContemporaryHum alive.

They missed out on the latest round of public funding, so the future looks bleak for this platform dedicated to promoting Aotearoa / New Zealand internationally.

[Michael Dooney 🚢 @MichaelDooney_]

Along with many other awesome artists & initiatives, @ContemporaryHum recently didn't get much-needed public funding.

They need your support to sustain the project and build new foundations to resume publishing later in 2024.

Last chance to register for this Fridays live webinar demystifying the art world for photographers.

If no matter what you've tried, you can’t get the attention of galleries, curators & other gatekeepers of the art world.

This course is for you: https://t.co/JCqdWgnBXN

Interesting + important @FT interview with Lesley Ramos, about the evolving arts philanthropy + fundraising scene, by @redsea99.

Lesley Ramos spoke about her new @LHArtBooks ‘Philanthropy in the Arts’ at a recent @awitalondon event with @GeorginaAdam11 - impressive if sobering!

Have you wanted to exhibit your photography but feel intimidated by art galleries?

Does thinking about pricing, editions, and certificates of authenticity leave you overwhelmed and unsure where to even start?
