As we countdown to launch, we’re sharing previews of Imprimo’s tools for visual artists.

This week: Meet your new artist CV

Do you already maintain a lengthy artist CV?

Perhaps you’re wondering how to format your first CV as a professional artist?

Or maybe you’re somewhere in between.

Whichever scenario best describes you, we can help.

Why every artist needs a CV

Your artist CV is evidence of your professional experience and artistic achievements. It’s a crucial document, needed for grant applications, exhibition calls, commissions, residency programs and more.

But it can be long and unwieldy, a pain to update across different platforms or formats, and it’s a text document tasked with painting a picture of your career as a visual artist.

How is an Imprimo CV different?

The Imprimo CV uses your art to tell the story of your career.

Alongside well-organized text, images of your work display within the CV. You can also upload documents such as photos of your studio process or from an opening, or a media interview.

The CV recognizes that your career is a web, not a straight line.

The piece that began with a grant application, took shape at a residency, and was recently included in an exhibition? In your Imprimo CV those events become inter-connected, allowing a viewer to navigate between different CV events and your artwork records.

Wait, there’s more!

On Imprimo, your CV is in sync with your verified artist profile. We call it a Living CV. When you populate relevant fields elsewhere on the platform, such as adding an exhibition, reproduction or residency to an artwork record, your CV builds itself!

When can I try it?

Imprimo, the all-in-one art-management tool for visual artists, is launching in March.
