Tatiana explains what she is looking for and why - and this puts you in an advantageous position, because you’ll know her likes and dislikes before you write to her.

Recently, we hosted Tatiana Cheneviere at a Praxis Roundtable, our weekly Zoom call where members meet and interact directly with influential collectors, curators, and gallerists.

Here is a highlight from that Roundtable where she explains the format of her gallery and how she introduces each exhibit in advance:

At Praxis Roundtables, artists like you don’t just meet curators, gallerists, and collectors. 

💡 The portfolios of our annual members are placed directly in front of every guest before the session even begins. That means: when you arrive, Tatiana Cheneviere already knows your work. You’re not making a cold introduction; you’re continuing a conversation that’s already started.

Instead of being one more artist introducing yourself in a crowded Zoom, you become the person they already recognize.

Let’s peek behind the curtain and look at a real-life example of what happens during the roundtable session when the speaker highlights the artists they like from the Praxis Portfolio and explains why:

These portfolio reviews often result in our members getting contacted for studio visits, included in group shows, and invited to submit proposals after Roundtables…

Think about it:

Instead of nervously trying to explain yourself in a crowded room, you’re stepping into a conversation where your work has already spoken on your behalf. That’s why so many curators and dealers remember our members’ names, because they’ve seen their art first, before they even shake hands.

Praxis membership is designed to make these moments possible. 

Members don’t just gain access to one Roundtable; they’re welcomed into a program where every week brings a new insider, whether it’s a curator from Venice Biennale, a gallerist from New York, or a museum director from Los Angeles. Recordings of each conversation are archived, so you can revisit insights that directly impact how you shape your career. 

Annual Members, especially, find themselves at a different level. Their portfolios circulate privately to every guest in advance, a quiet but powerful introduction that shifts how they’re perceived. 

And when it comes time to outreach, members aren’t on their own. They receive templates and direct mentoring from me. I personally edit drafts, making sure those follow-ups are impossible to ignore.

Beyond the Roundtables, the membership also includes a suite of professional development courses, covering everything from grant writing and time management to taxes, social media, and gallery strategy. In short, it’s the scaffolding artists need to build a sustainable career, not just a lucky break.

The truth? Even if you only attended the Roundtables, the return would more than cover the cost of membership. That’s why I offer a money-back guarantee if you’re not satisfied.

👉 Join Praxis Center Membership today (Monthly $59 | Annual $595) and step into an international circle of decision-makers who will know your work before you ever say a word.

Enrollment closes on February 13, 2026. No exceptions.
