Laura Preston works in contemporary art at the intersection of curatorial and editorial practice. Her background spans art-historical research, critical art writing, exhibition-making and art publishing, with experience at institutions including Haus der Kulturen der Welt, Berlin; documenta 14, Kassel and Athens; Portikus, Frankfurt am Main; and Te Pātaka Toi Adam Art Gallery, Wellington.
She collaborates with artists and institutions on the tone, interpretive approach and conceptual through-line of a project, mediating the complexities of the artwork to produce high-quality, context-sensitive writing that is equally clear and accessible. She is particularly interested in interdisciplinary and cross-cultural projects which give voice to previously marginalised artists and their histories.
