Project Support and Delivery
Artfield Projects offers a suite of tailored Project Management services to artists, designers and professionals with the aim of developing skills and delivering artworks/events.
Projectisation
To make the most of each opportunity those working in the cultural sector must effectively negotiate competing demands – project timelines, budgets, stakeholders, sub-contractors, along with other competing tasks. In art and design, these factors sometimes override the time spent ‘making the work’. As a result, ‘projectisation’ is a growing trend in creative practice.
Artfield Projects offers a suite of project management services, which enable creative practitioners to do what they do best – work. Services are designed to support the diverse needs of artists, designers, curators, educators, gallerists and other practitioners, so that they can prioritise practice, freeing up the time and space required to conceive and deliver artworks.
