How long does artist selection usually take?

With a written brief, a curated shortlist can be presented within two to three weeks, and a decision reached in one meeting. Without a brief, the same selection routinely takes two to three months because the criteria are being invented while the options are being reviewed.

How many artists should be shortlisted for a project?

Three to four is usually optimal. Fewer limits comparison; more produces decision fatigue and slows approval. Each shortlisted artist should be presented with a rationale explaining why they fit the brief, and with an indication of availability and budget band.

Should artists be paid for concept proposals?

Yes. A paid concept phase produces serious, project-specific proposals rather than recycled portfolio images, and it establishes a professional relationship from the start. It is normally a small percentage of the total commission and is credited against the final fee.

What is the difference between a curator and an art consultant?

A curator builds the conceptual argument and coherence of the programme; a consultant typically sources and procures available work. On hospitality projects the two functions often merge, but you should know which one you are hiring and what is included.
