Would you like to meet this chief curator from London: Nicole Yip?
Published: Mon, 09/25/23
She is the chief curator at Nottingham Contemporary in London.
In August, we had the privilege of hosting Nicole Yip at a Praxis Roundtable -- a weekly Zoom call where Praxis students meet and interact with influential collectors, curators and gallerists.
As the chief curator of one of the oldest and most prominent gallery spaces in London, she explained how to get exhibits there and how artists can get involved.
She also explained how to reach her staff of curators for one on one advice and conversation based on a first come first serve basis!
That knowledge can land you a show there and/or get you on the inside of the London art world.
Here are some highlights from that Roundtable:
- Video Clip 1: She is talking about her role as chief curator, overseeing artistic programs including exhibitions, live events, commissions, and collaborations. The team balances global conversations with local engagement, forming a unique identity.
- Video Clip 2: She initiates projects with a “what if…” rather than predetermined outcomes. Collaborating with a design collective, they explore reimagining public space using Lina Bo Bardi's unconventional drawing made during Brazil's dictatorship era.
- Video Clip 3: Their program evolved from prioritizing regional artists to addressing diverse queries, offering open-ended sessions with personalized expertise and staff biographies for context.
- Video Clip 4: She is discussing that while not everyone may become an artist, their aim is to empower all creatively. Her role is to foster art appreciation, offer diverse access points through education and hands-on sessions, benefiting the local community. As you can see, she is the one who can open doors for you that can result in an exhibition.
Would you like to meet her?
As a Praxis member, you can!
- You get access to Nicole Yip’s contact information - as well as the private contact details of 180+ other prestigious collectors, curators and art dealers…
- When you enroll, you get access to the full, 1-hour recording of our Roundtable with Nicole Yip. The insights Nicole shared will help you get ready to speak to one of their curators and show them your art.
- In addition, as a Praxis member you also get to meet a new art world insider like Nicole every single week, live, at our Praxis Roundtable, which is a Zoom call with a different collector or curator each week…
- You’ll get my assistance to effectively reach out to the movers and shakers you meet at these Roundtables. I’ll give you two letter templates you can use, so that you don’t have to worry about what to say and will have a better chance of getting a response back.
- Best part? You can ask me to personally edit these emails and letters before you send them out to make sure that they are compelling and you don’t get ghosted.
Plus: you also get personal access to me, Brainard Carey, and a suite of educational guides on topics ranging from social media tactics to reaching galleries and getting feedback on your art.
That said, I’m willing to bet that if you ONLY showed up for the weekly Praxis Roundtables over Zoom and met the collectors, curators and dealers that are there, without doing ANYTHING else, you will at the very least 3X your investment right away.
Which is why I offer a money back guarantee if you are not happy.
