Also, be sure to upload your profile picture. This makes your page visible on the website and allows us to find you in the overview of all registered artistsThis overview is regularly used (internally and externally) when looking to match artists to assignments. Art Office has a broad network and can act as an intermediary between artists and other parties. We have done this in collaboration with citizenM, Provinciehuis Zuid-Holland and the Fleur Groenendijk Foundation, among others. The more complete your artist page is, the easier it is to find you.
We regularly update the website to keep it as current as possible. For you as an artist, this means that if you have not updated your artists page for over a year, it will be deactivated, and it no longer be visible on the website. Are you moving outside of Rotterdam? Let us know and we will make sure your profile is removed.
