Curatorial Research : From Idea to Exhibition

Find Artists at Exhibitions

Looking into the past exhibitions and shows is going to be a great way of discovering new artists. Here are some suggestions:

• Gallery spaces
  • Don't forget to look outside of Baltimore, too!
• Small museums
  • The Drawing Center in NYC might have some good non-local options
• Alternative art spaces (cafes, bars, etc.)
• Non-profits that fund or show art--see who they have funded/show in the past
  • Creative Alliance is a good example of this in Baltimore
• CVs or Resumes of artists you already know
  • See what shows they did and who else was in that show
• Sondheim Artscape Prize

Find Art Fairs to Look At

Don't forget national and international artists! Here's a starting place towards discovering potential art fairs to look at. The library collects many of these catalogues, although a lot of the information is also found online.
