Creative Careers: Art Handler Jobs Roundup

Art handlers play a significant role at art fairs

New York City is abuzz with artists and art enthusiasts visiting for Armory Arts Week. Leading curators, gallerists, and art influencers attend the annual showcase to interact with emerging artists and see the upcoming trends in the industry. As a whole, the artwork on display grabs the attention of art collectors and invites conversation from every visitor. Do you wonder how all that artwork arrives in perfect condition? Two words: Art Handlers. 

All artwork – on-site commissioned projects to limited edition pieces – needs the support of experienced art handlers, preparators and installers. Our latest job roundup notes positions at top-tier companies, including Crozier Fine Arts, The International Center of Photography, and Cadogan Tate.
