Submit Your Application to be an ArtSearch Curator!
@TheNewAlchemists are seeking Art Curators for our ArtSearch curation initiative! This is a call for applications.
The New Alchemists (TNA) will be curating a high standard of creative work via the ARTSEARCH WEEKLY DIGEST (scheduled to begin Monday, April 16).
OUR MISSION The New Alchemists make experiential, multidisciplinary art that brings stories that need to be told to life with courage, compassion, humanity, and heart.
OUR GOAL is to demonstrate the transformative power of all modes of art and performance (from creative writing to comedy, or from painting to performance art).
OUR TARGET AUDIENCE is an inclusive community of intersectional artists, collaborators, and free thinkers.
Art Curator Duties & Gig Details
(1) You will be assigned to 1 or more art categories (see below).
(2) Every 2 weeks you will select 7-10 artists in your category to feature in a post, to be published on @TheNewAlchemist steemit account.
(3) Curators will receive a 50/50 payout split on each post authored!
(4) We encourage curators to creatively promote their own work.
We will focus on the following steemit art categories:
Creative Writing (fiction, poetry, playwrighting, spoken word etc)
Performance (theatre, dance, comedy, improvisation)
Visual Arts (painting, sculpture, modern craft, etc)
Music (all musical styles and genres)
Photography
Application Requirements
To submit your application to be an ARTSEARCH CURATOR, please create a post answering the following questions. Leave a link to your post here in the comments and be sure to tag @TheNewAlchemists and @LilyRaabe so we can easily find your work!
(1) What are your core values as a curator?
(2) What role should art and culture play in our society?
(3) What categories of art would you like to cover, and in what language(s)?
(4) And because all hard work deserves a reward: what is your favorite meal to eat when you want to "treat yourself"?
Equity Statement
The New Alchemists believe in radical inclusion of all people. On that note: our site will not be limited to English-language content. We strongly believe that great art transcends language. We highly encourage artists and creatives writing and working in other languages to apply as curators. For example: we are already in conversation about a Spanish art curation series with several artists.

Getting to Know The New Alchemists

You can check out my intro post, read more about the theatre projects I work on, or follow me! I’m especially interested in finding other performing artists on this site.

Thanks @thenewalchemists
Thank you so much for wanting to submit (awesome!) -- please note -- when I say "create post" I mean writing and publishing a post via your steemit account and leaving a link to that post here in the comments. :) Don't forget to also use the tags mentioned above.
(1) What are your core values as a curator?:
I believe the most important part of curation is objectivity. I see so many art works in my daily job as well as on social media that is not my style or taste, but curating is about promoting good art for everyone. So the most important part of curating is looking at content, concept and technical skill.
(2) What role should art and culture play in our society?:
Art takes on many roles. Art in modern terms reflects our culture and society taking on a role of social commentary informing and highlighting issues. Art can also be purely decorative and we should never underestimate the value of showing the beauty of our world. Art also reminds the general public of our ability as humans to imagine anything is possible and therefore giving rise to invention. We are becoming a global society, but art can still showcase a particular culture or country to allow a global understanding as well as saving a visual history for the future.
(3) What categories of art would you like to cover, and in what language(s)?:
English or on the bizarre chance Afrikaans.
I'm most comfortable curating visual arts, painting, drawing, printing (etching, monoprints,silkscreen etc), sculpture, ceramics, glass. I'm happy to curate digital work, but I'm not sure that I know enough to know when it contains a high skill set so I would only be able to curate on the basic visual end product.
(4) And because all hard work deserves a reward: what is your favorite meal to eat when you want to "treat yourself"?:
Ooooooh this is the most difficult question so far. I love biltong, bunny chows, Sushi, milktart, koeksisters and bacon sandwiches.
