Before applying, please review the artist’s work at www.ruben.studio.
This role requires a deep understanding of the artist’s visual language and positioning. We are seeking someone who can thoughtfully identify specific galleries, curators, and collectors aligned with the work — not mass outreach.
In your application, please include:
A short paragraph outlining how you would position this body of work within the current art landscape
3–5 specific galleries, curators, or institutions you believe would be strong targets
A brief overview of your existing relationships within the art world
Examples of exhibitions, placements, or studio visits you’ve successfully facilitated
We are particularly interested in candidates who can secure meaningful studio visits and cultivate long-term exhibition opportunities.
