HOOKING UP: FLEETING ENCOUNTERS IN THE DC ART WORLD
Understanding the dynamics of the art world will help an artist gain exposure
and recognition. Staying on top of awards, exhibitions, galleries, curators,
collectors, grants, and residences, while balancing networking and creating,
is an exercise in discipline. What are some of the best resources to stay
hooked into the art world? What are some of the best methods for hooking up
with opportunities? How can you strike the right balance?
This is not an exhaustive list, but it is a good place to start to monitor
the DC art scene and the opportunities that fit your goals.
