The Houston Press is looking for an art reviewer to cover shows at local museums and galleries. You don’t have to have an art history degree, but you do need a store of knowledge, the ability to write clearly and persuasively, an opinion, and the guts to express that opinion.
These short reviews will be published in the pages of the Houston Press and online at Art Attack, with possible opportunity for larger assignments.
If you’re interested, send a cover letter, résumé and writing samples to catherine.matusow at houstonpress.com. If you don’t have any published samples, pick a show, write up a short review and send that in. No phone calls, please.
