art curation
Selecting museum pieces
Art curation is the process of selecting, organizing, and presenting artworks for exhibition or collection.
A curator decides which pieces belong together, how they should be arranged, and what story or theme they convey.
The term extends beyond museums to galleries, private collections, and digital platforms: She handles art curation for a contemporary gallery downtown.
Curation implies expertise and intentional choice rather than random accumulation.
