Harrie Chung

Hi Everyone, I am Harrie! I'm a History of Art student who will be a Third-year in the next academic year. I would also like to express my interest in applying for the role of the deputy of event as a member of the Arts and Business Social Committee. Last academic year, I worked as a Treasurer in History of Art Society, and I became more fascinated by the commercial parts of art by co-creating various events with the Art Business Society. Attending many events organised by ABS, listening to stories about the people in the art field, and meeting and talking in person has led to a deep sense that the commercial role of art directly affects the general public, and I had a desire to contribute to this. In addition, ABS's iconic mentoring programme served as a significant opportunity to get in close contact with people in the field and gain knowledge of it. I will do my best to carry out this fantastic project. As the deputy of event, from curators, auctioneers and cataloguers, I am enthused by the opportunity to create and expand the connection to more fertile fields such as art law, NFT and art investment. I believe my former experience will contribute positively to the ABS to work more smoothly and actively. Simultaneously, I aim to provide a broad experience to members with an expanded field related to the art business.

Lola de Winter

It’s easy to visit galleries and appreciate art without considering the business industry behind it. The Art Business Society provides insight into this industry, and for this reason, I would like to become a more active member of the society. This endeavour will be rewarding not only because of the amazing opportunities to interact with leading practitioners within the industry but also to create a thought-provoking and welcoming space for discourses to occur. This society has created a platform for members, myself included, to be inspired by the talks and want to learn more about this enigmatic industry. My enthusiastic approach will be an asset to maintaining the already established standards of this society. I am confident in reaching out to potential speakers and look forward to bringing in new and exciting ways to reach wider audiences and further explore the world of art business. Networking and bringing people together is something that I enjoy and organising events aligns with this. As a first year History of Art student, my interest in art encompasses a wide variety of influences that can be utilised for the benefit and enrichment of the society. I possess the qualities of organisation, initiative, and creativity; all essential for this role. By considering me for the position of Deputy Events Officer you can be assured that my contribution to the society and community as a whole will take the society to the next level.
