Ask Kurt – The Curatorial Mirror You Didn’t Know You Needed
Ask Kurt is a digital curatorial platform offering artists non-automated, human feedback on their online presence. Evaluated by a team of invited curators and editorial experts
Meet Ask Kurt - Curatorial Platform
Ask Kurt is a curatorial review platform by Munchies Art Club – a quiet space where emerging artists get honest, professional feedback on how their work lands in the real world.
This is not a portfolio submission. It’s not an open call. It’s a curatorial checkpoint.
Artists submit a few screenshots, a statement, and a glimpse of their online presence. In return, they receive a short, focused response: what reads clearly, what might confuse, and what curators actually see when encountering the work for the first time.
Ask Kurt is not about changing your work. It’s about understanding how it’s perceived.
You’ll hear from real curators, invited experts, and the Munchies Art Club editorial team – not AI, not templates. This is human reflection, curated gently but truthfully.Right now, Ask Kurt is in test mode and Free of Charge.
What You’ll Receive
- A 7–10 day feedback response
- Evaluation based on:
- Your Instagram (screenshot)
- Two images of your work
- Your artist statement
- Optional portfolio or website
- A clean, honest breakdown of how your current presentation lands
Why We Do This
Because even great work gets lost in bad screenshots. Because many artists never hear how their feed feels. Because clarity is a curatorial tool – and you deserve access to it.
And If It Clicks?
- You might be invited to join a future curated open call (free)
- You might be flagged for internal editorial features
- You might simply get the nod: “This is working.”
But we don’t sell visibility. We notice it.
EASY, RESPECTFUL, OPTIONAL
- Submit your work via private form
- Receive feedback within 7–10 days
Ask Kurt is here to help you see yourself – not from your studio chair, but from the other side of the screen.
