About this course:

How galleries find artists & what gallerists are looking for. The Visiting Critic Program “Gallery Edition” offers in-depth feedback, exposure and connections with 4 respected art world professionals. Class is led online via Zoom by Deanna Evans, Founder of Deanna Evans Projects, in company with a strong group of artists from around the country.

Each Visiting Critic will introduce themselves with a brief presentation and Q+A. Next, artists in class present online slideshows of their art work and prepare questions to receive feedback from Deanna Evans, the Visiting Critic and peers. This program helps take one’s work, thinking and process in new and exciting directions.

Each class will be recorded for artists to review artist talks and presentations; in addition the chat will always be saved for those wanting to review notes from their critique or presentation.
