visual-art:curator

A visual-art curator chooses existing artworks and arranges them into a new whole, such as an exhibition. They build a theme, select the works that serve it, and set their order, rooms, and wall labels. Painters, photographers, and sculptors make the works the curator gathers. Once arranged, the show passes to gallerists who release it to the public and to conservators who tend the works over time. The curator shapes how separate works read together as a single experience.
