Our Mountainous Art call showed us many things, how beautiful our planet is, how spread across this globe we all are, and how talented you all are. We are excited to share our choices from our art call and we will start purchasing and provide an update on our progress soon!

A year can change an art practice. 9 months ago, I launched @Artist_Commons because every time I did a studio visit I kept hearing artists ask for the same few things: more structure and rhythm in their practice, better feedback on their work, practical knowledge about the business of art, mentorship and. Since then, 40 students from 16 countries have joined our year-long program. In the last 16 weeks alone, we’ve hosted 34 lectures, panels, and interviews for our students with contemporary artists, curators, critics, philosophers, art historians, collectors, and art world professionals. Students have heard from artists like Mitchell F. Chan, Sasha Stiles, Jenn & Kevin McCoy, Sarah Rothberg, and Andrew Benincasa. They’ve learned about the business side of art from former Sotheby’s director Brian Beccafico, NYT film critic Alissa Wilkinson, gallery director Adam Heft Berninger, and collector Whitney Hart. They’ve studied what drives their art with philosopher Dr. Rebecca Millsop, and explored the history of contemporary art movements with professors Polina Rud, Amy Raffel, Cristin McKnight Sethi, Cheyenne Rudolph, and many others. But the heart of the program is what happens week after week: artists bringing their work to their cohort and receiving feedback, developing language for what they’re making, learning to ask better questions, and building a rhythm that can actually sustain their practice. It’s been a deeply meaningful first year for the artists who joined in January, and we’re still less than halfway through. Our next batch of cohorts begin in July. The early application deadline is today. Standard deadline is June 15. If this is the kind of support you’ve been wanting around your work, we’d love to get to know you and your practice. #ArtEducation #ArtistDevelopment #MakingArt #LearningArt
