Toolbox für Portfolio und Präsenz im Kunstfeld with Birgit Effinger
Venue:
- Online-Workshop via BigBlueButton
What is my artistic work about?
How do I talk about issues without bending?
How can I apply successfully?
With whom do I want to enter into an exchange?
What happens after the art academy?
Texts about my own work, applications, project descriptions, scholarship applications: Speaking and writing also play an important role in the fine arts. What does it mean to write a text? What strategies should be adopted in order to write about one's own concerns confidently and away from the usual conventions? How can I convey my artistic practice in a portfolio that fits perfectly? The two-day workshop opens up ways and methods to convey your own artistic practice in a natural, precise and appropriate way.
Based on the current projects and works of the participants* we will try out different forms of presentation and writing with
- Short presentations of different designs,
- discussing your own portfolio and explaining different jury situations and viewing conditions,
- the writing of short texts on artistic practice.
The aim is to refine the presentation of one's own practice through self-reflection, information and practice and to develop text modules that can be used for applications, proposals, publications and websites.
Please bring relevant documents (portfolio, photos, short texts, illustrations etc.) with you!
