Just a few months ago, we had the privilege of hosting her at a Praxis Roundtable -- a weekly Zoom call where Praxis students meet and interact with influential collectors, curators and gallerists.
Here are some highlights from that Roundtable:
- Video Clip 1: Would you like your art to benefit humanity? She is talking about how a project she did in Nigeria demonstrated the power of art to transform communities and spaces. She describes how they repainted buildings in specific colors and displayed black and white photographs, which led to a large gathering of people celebrating the art. This engagement helped the community understand the
impact of art, leading to increased interaction and appreciation, and even inspired others to embrace art initiatives.
- Video Clip 2: What kind of spaces and artists does she prefer to curate? She discusses the unpredictability and adaptability required in curating. Depending on the context—whether it’s a museum show or a community project—the
approach can vary greatly. Working in informal spaces has helped her grow as a curator, allowing her to improvise and respect the local context and people, ultimately creating meaningful and globally presentable work.
- Video Clip 3: Is she open to your emailing her about a crazy project that no one else accepts? She is talking about her openness
to accepting unconventional projects that others might reject. She encourages people to email her with such ideas, as she enjoys finding ways to realize them.
As you can see, she likes unusual, politically engaged art that she can showcase. Would you like to meet her?
As a Praxis member, you can!
- You get access to Inês Valle’s contact information - as well as the private contact details of 250+ other prestigious collectors, curators and art dealers…
- When you enroll, you get access to the full, 1-hour recording of our Roundtable with Inês Valle. The insights Inês Valle shared will help you understand how to present yourself to her so she takes
an interest!
- In addition, as a Praxis member you also get to meet a new art world insider like Inês Valle 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? Mentoring. 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 grant writing to finding sponsors and negotiating gallery contracts.
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.
Join the VIP Edition of Praxis Center Membership (Monthly $59/m | Annual $595/yr) and unlock a truly international circle of art world insiders who can propel your career!
Enrolment closes on Friday, Dec 13. No exceptions.
