Course Description
Explore how galleries discover artists and what gallerists seek in this comprehensive 6-week course, 'The Visiting Critic Program'. Artists will gain valuable feedback, exposure, and opportunities to connect with four respected art world professionals.
Led online via Zoom by Laura Brown, the course connects artists from around the world. Each visiting critic will introduce themselves with a presentation and Q&A session.
