For nearly twenty years, I have worked with arts organizations and creative companies to make exhibitions and books, devise publishing strategies, edit texts, and create digital experiences. More
I am currently directing a publishing-and-exhibition project for the Ryerson Image Centre and Steidl; consulting with and editing for the Felix Gonzalez-Torres Foundation and for Frontier, a design office in Toronto; serving on the jury of the Scotiabank Photography Award; editing for the Moderna Museet, OSMOS, and other organizations; and writing and curating.
I would be happy to hear from you: brian@sholis.com.

I help museums, galleries, and creative companies develop print and online publishing strategies and edit texts destined for books, catalogues, websites, and gallery walls. This entails everything from commissioning writers and developmental editing to copy editing and proofreading. I’ve even indexed a book.
In addition to the staff positions I held at Artforum and Aperture Foundation, over the last fifteen years I have worked with Creative Time, Frontier, the Institute of Contemporary Arts London, Matthew Marks Gallery, Metabolic Studio, Moderna Museet, Museum of Modern Art Warsaw, Objektiv, OSMOS, and the Venice Biennale, among other clients.
I’m currently open to working with new partners and would be pleased to hear from you.
