This will include assisting with guest list management and helping the team in the delivery of events for exhibition openings. Pathway 2 - Sales, gallery operations and exhibitionsThis pathway offers a unique opportunity to gain hands-on experience across three essential areas of White Cube’s day-to-day activities:&nbsp;primary and secondary sales,&nbsp;registrars and gallery operations, and exhibitions. From supporting VIP clients during Frieze Week to assisting with exhibition planning and artist research, you’ll develop a comprehensive understanding of how a major commercial gallery operates.Over the course of the internship, you will:<ul><li>Collaborate with the&nbsp;sales team to assist with client research, help prepare artwork offer packs and PDFs, manage sales data, and learn how relationships with collectors are nurtured.</li><li>Support the&nbsp;secondary market department by conducting object and market research, compiling exhibition histories, tracking auction results, and contributing to sales presentations.</li><li>Join the&nbsp;exhibitions team in the logistical and creative process of producing shows, from budgeting and installation scheduling to preparing artist dossiers and participating in exhibition kick-off meetings.</li><li>Understand more about the operational side of the gallery and work with the registrars, supporting them with client service, shipping and logistical administration.&nbsp;</li></ul>You will also receive training in programmes like SketchUp, gain exposure to art fairs such as&nbsp;Frieze London, and contribute to a vibrant programme of monthly exhibition research designed to broaden your awareness of the contemporary art landscape.
