Artist Management

Artist management here is taken on by the project, not as blanket representation, and is distinct from both the gallery and the agent model. It addresses the full scope of an artist's professional life beyond sales: long-term career positioning, institutional access, contractual protection, critical infrastructure, and coherent public presence over time. The practice takes no role in sales facilitation, commercial pricing, or collector relationships — those remain the gallery's domain.

Areas of Practice

Career Strategy

Long-term career narrative and positioning — identifying gaps and inconsistencies in how the artist is perceived, advising on gallery relationships, institutional sequencing, and geographic expansion.

Institutional Relations

Approaching museums, kunsthalles, biennales, residencies, and foundations on the artist's behalf — developing proposals, managing relationships with curators and directors, and navigating institutional politics.

Commissions & Projects

Identifying commission opportunities, developing proposals, negotiating contracts across fees, production budgets, intellectual property, credit, and maintenance — and managing production relationships where support is required.

Edition Strategy

Advising on edition programme development — prints, sculpture editions, artist books, and multiples — including pricing, sequencing, platform, contracts, and archival documentation.

Contracts & Legal

Reviewing gallery contracts, consignment agreements, loan and exhibition terms, and representation contracts — advising on intellectual property rights and coordinating with legal counsel where required.

Communications & Positioning

Developing or auditing public-facing materials — biography, statement, CV, and web presence — and managing press relations and relationships with critics, writers, and editors.

Research & Publications

Developing publication strategy, commissioning critical texts and research, and building the bibliographic and exhibition record into a coherent body of work — while maintaining its critical and art-historical context and monitoring reception.

Financial & Administrative

Fee structures, project pricing, studio administration, grant applications across relevant jurisdictions, and coordination with accountants on income structure and international payment logistics.

Residencies, Prizes & Applications

Researching relevant residencies and prizes, writing or overseeing applications to a professional standard, and managing follow-through obligations and relationship maintenance post-residency.
