Seven steps from the day you join to your own site

Curated is not a plan you switch on. It is a commission, paid once: a curator reads your work, talks to you, then builds your site by hand. Here is every step of it, shown as you will actually see it.

Redirecting to payment
The Curated card, at the moment you press it.

Choosing Curated takes you straight to payment, once and for all: there is no monthly fee. This and the form that follows are the only steps you do on your own. From here, your site is built with you, not by you.

The calendar, which opens the moment the dossier is complete.

You schedule a one-hour call of discovery with your curator. We go through your work together, find the thread that holds it, and the curator selects the 10 to 15 works your site is built on. By the end, you know exactly what comes next.

The deep dive

Your curator at ARTLABWhat we still need for your space

Good to talk today. Here is the short list we agreed on:

  • The four paintings from the 2024 series, at full resolution
  • Two detail shots of the surface, raking light if you have it
  • Dates and venues for the three shows you mentioned

No deadline on our side. The build starts when the last file lands.

The follow-up, in writing, straight after the call.

We agree during the call on the specific material we still need: higher-resolution images, details, texts, whatever the space calls for. It comes to you in writing, straight to your inbox, so nothing gets lost.

Ten sites at a time.

Curated is hand built, so it is capped: the curator works on ten sites at once. When the spots are gone, the next artists go on a waitlist until a site is delivered.
