The story of each artist matters both to artists themselves, and to the community of collectors, critics and curators who participate in that story.

Career Documentation/Artist’s Archive. X Gallery works closely with you to collect and organize the documentation of your career into an artist’s archive, helping you gain the physical and intellectual control of your work necessary to tell your story, and to manage your legacy. Creating an artist archive involves:

• Organizing and creating physical and digital records (inventory) of artwork, images, exhibition materials, correspondence, sketches, financial records, and specialized materials used in an artist’s work;

• Studio organization that supports a structure for tracking & seizing opportunities for exhibits, grants, public art, press, interviews, residencies, and awards; and

• Storage and preservation planning; which leads to …

Legacy Management. Managing your legacy primarily involves making decisions about the future of your artistic assets. X Gallery offers tools to help you make these decisions and to manage the placement or dispersal of your body of work—a process which can both help guide your work while you are alive, and is important to the people who follow you.
