Your bio and statement are the essential texts you will use for your website, grant applications, artist registries, and media inquiries. In this empowering class, Robin Cembalest shares the tools that artists need to translate their work and ideas into clear, accessible language.

Robin, former ARTnews editor and a widely published journalist, draws on her deep expertise in contemporary art and knowledge of the art industry to help each participant define and position their practice. Using on her experience as an editor, she demystifies the writing process and helps every student to communicate more effectively.

Robin shares templates and specific examples from a wide range of artists to break down the bio process. She explains how to describe yourself and your art, chronicle your process, and unpack the deeper meaning of your work. Then, she’ll offer feedback and advice on each participant’s statement.

With just eight spots in each Eventbrite workshop, Robin ensures that every student is empowered to move forward.

Whether you’re just starting your statement or urgently need an update, artists at any stage of their careers will benefit.
