Celebrating a Milestone in My Journey: Advancing My Skills in Art Curation & Exhibition Management

Annita Apostolidou Platis celebrates a milestone with her certification in Art Curation & Exhibition Management from the Visual Artists Association. This achievement, guided by renowned mentors, enhances her role as an artist and exhibition essayist while opening new paths in creative expression and curatorial practice.

Εορτάζοντας ένα ορόσημο στο ταξίδι μου: Εξελίσσοντας τις δεξιότητές μου στη διαχείριση καλλιτεχνικών εκθέσεων και επιμέλειας.

Εξερευνώντας νέους κόσμους της τέχνης, όπου κάθε έκθεση μεταμορφώνει το ορατό σε εμπειρία. Περήφανη για την επίτευξη μου, η οποία εμπλουτίζει τη διαδρομή μου ως συγγραφέας κειμένων για εκθέσεις, ανοίγοντας νέους δρόμους για δημιουργική έκφραση και κριτική σκέψη.

I am thrilled to share a significant achievement in my artistic and professional development—the completion of the Art Curation & Exhibition Management course offered by the Visual Artists Association. This intensive program has been a transformative experience, equipping me with essential skills in the art of curating and the dynamics of exhibition management.

Curating is not just about organizing art; it's about creating a narrative that connects the audience with the essence of creativity. Under the guidance of distinguished mentors like Karen van Hoey Smith, whose expertise as an artist mentor provided a strong foundation, I delved deeply into the subtleties of exhibition planning and execution. With Maeve Doyle, an internationally renowned art critic, I explored various curatorial styles, gaining insights into what makes an exhibition resonate with diverse audiences. Her global perspective was invaluable, enriching my understanding and appreciation of different artistic expressions. Stephanie Dieckvoss and Emily-Jean Alexander brought a wealth of knowledge in management and project coordination. Their strategic approaches to managing art exhibitions illuminated the practical aspects of bringing an artistic vision to fruition, from the initial concept to the final installation.

This course has not only honed my skills but also expanded my professional network, connecting me with experts and practitioners who are at the forefront of the art industry. The comprehensive curriculum covered everything from the conceptualization of exhibition themes to the practicalities of public engagement, ensuring that every participant can curate with confidence and creativity. As I reflect on this journey, I am excited about the opportunities to apply these new skills in upcoming projects. This achievement marks a pivotal moment in my career as an artist and exhibition essayist. It represents a leap towards new challenges and achievements in the vibrant world of art curation.
