Writing the Artist Resume: Guidelines

 


The College Art Association (CAA) is a professional group that represents college and university art and design professors. These guidelines are truly excellent, but I wish they would have included an example of what it actually looks like.  Here is a link to a website that does include actual examples, but feel free to explore the internet for a format that fits your proverbial vibe. When it comes to layout, remember that less is more. Don't clutter it up with inessential stuff. You want your resume to be like a snapshot of you as an artist or designer.

A finished draft of your artist resume is due next Wednesday or Thursday. You might want to get started early.

Remember that for this exercise you are ten years older and have had a successful career. The year is 2033. This means that you'll have to use your imagination to project this future "you".
