I’ve been wanting to bring a curator’s perspective to this show for a long time and I’m so happy that I held out for Angelik Vizcarrondo-Laboy. Glitter-loving, down-to-earth and super fun to chat with, Angelik gives us some great insight into what it’s like on the curator's side of the exhibitions, the behind-the-scenes of putting together shows, how to connect with curators and navigate studio visits, and all things humor, cuteness and leisure.


We talked about…

What she does an an independent curator
Being independent v. working at an institution
Subjectivity, compromise and the ways that curators do and don’t have power
Her process for curating a show
The aesthetics of optimism: why it’s been marginalized in the past and why it’s having a moment now
Minimalism and privilege
How to connect with and develop a relationship with curators
Do’s and don’ts of studio visits
Tips for artists moving forward
