ARTIST SELECTION PROCESS

OUR CURATORIAL PURPOSE

Renaissance Art House is committed to presenting the most compelling expressions of modern Black artistry. Our role as a curator-driven platform means that every piece is selected with intention, cultural sensitivity, and a deep respect for the artist’s craft.

Our Curatorial Philosophy

We look for work that moves beyond decoration and into meaning. Craft, clarity of vision, cultural resonance, and emotional impact all guide our decisions. Whether the artist is emerging or established, the work must carry a sense of purpose — something that contributes to the broader narrative of Black creativity. If a piece makes us pause, reflect, or feel deeply, it earns our attention.

How We Select Artists

Our process is research-driven and invitation-based. We actively observe artists across exhibitions, online platforms, and creative communities, studying the consistency, originality, and strength of their portfolios. When an artist’s work aligns with the Renaissance standard, we reach out directly to begin a conversation. This slower, more deliberate approach allows us to maintain a collection where every work is chosen, not merely added.

Sharing Your Work

Artists who feel their work reflects the spirit and standard of Renaissance Art House are welcome to share a portfolio link with us. While we cannot respond to every message, we review submissions regularly as we look to highlight new voices and perspectives within the Black art community. Our goal is to create a space where exceptional work is discovered, supported, and thoughtfully presented — and we’re always open to finding artists whose vision aligns with ours.
