Exhibition Details

Open any exhibition to see its detail page.

The page starts with a quick summary of the exhibition:

  • Name
  • Location
  • Venue
  • date range
  • exhibition type
  • whether it is a solo show or group show
  • whether the exhibition is shared with collaborators

If the exhibition came from a submission in Artlope, you may also see a link back to that submission.

Each exhibition has these main tabs:

  • Detail
  • Edit info
  • Artworks
  • Expenses
  • Collaboration
  • Stats

The Detail tab is the read-only overview.

The Edit info tab is where you update the exhibition itself.

The Artworks tab is where you choose which artworks belong in the exhibition.

The Expenses tab lets you record costs connected to the exhibition.

The Collaboration tab is for inviting other Artlope users to work with you on the same exhibition record.

The Stats tab shows summary numbers for the exhibition.

The Detail tab gives you a full overview of the exhibition in one place.

It includes:

  • external link
  • contact information
  • story and website content
  • events
  • artworks in the exhibition
  • other artists, for group shows
  • attachments
  • comments
  • created and updated timestamps

You can also clone, delete, or leave the exhibition from this tab.

The Edit info tab lets you update the exhibition fields directly.

Name is the exhibition title.

Location is the city, region, or place where the exhibition happens.

Venue is the gallery, institution, fair, or other space hosting it.

Start date and End date define the exhibition period.

For permanent exhibitions, the type can be Permanent, but the exhibition still has dates in Artlope so it can be placed correctly in your timeline and stats.

Type describes what kind of exhibition it is:

  • Show
  • Permanent
  • Fair
  • Market

Solo show decides whether the exhibition is treated as a solo presentation of your work or a group exhibition.

If Solo show is turned off, Artlope can also store information about the other artists involved.

Each exhibition can also store one External link.

This is useful for the official exhibition page from a gallery, institution, fair, or organizer.

Each exhibition can store:

  • Contact name
  • Contact email
  • Contact telephone

This is useful for curators, organizers, galleries, or venue contacts you may need later.

The exhibition story section can hold:

  • Description
  • Artist statement
  • Title image
  • additional exhibition photos
  • Show on website
  • whether the external link should be shown on your website

Description is the main text about the exhibition.

Artist statement gives you a second text field when you want to include a more personal or contextual note.

Title image is the main exhibition image.

Additional photos can hold installation views, documentation, opening images, or other supporting images.

Show on website decides whether the exhibition appears on your website.

The separate external-link website setting decides whether the exhibition’s external link appears on the public exhibition page.

Each exhibition can also include events connected to it.

For each event, you can store:

  • Name
  • date
  • optional time
  • whether it is an all-day event
  • whether it should be shown on your website

This is useful for things like:

  • vernissages
  • artist talks
  • drop-off dates
  • pick-up dates
  • workshops

You can add exhibition events from the exhibition page, or from Dashboard > Upcoming schedule by using the add event button and choosing the exhibition.

For group exhibitions, you can add other artists and keep a light contact record for each one.

Each artist entry can include:

  • Name
  • Email
  • links

Links are useful for portfolio URLs, Instagram profiles, or personal websites.

Exhibitions can also hold supporting material beyond the artwork list itself.

Attachments let you store files on the exhibition. This can include checklists, contracts, floor plans, shipping documents, catalogs, or press material.

Each attachment shows:

  • the filename
  • upload date
  • file size, when available

Comments are private notes on the exhibition page. They are useful for reminders, planning notes, or follow-up tasks.

From the exhibition page, you can also:

  • clone the exhibition into a new exhibition draft
  • download a catalog based on the artworks in the exhibition
  • download exhibition labels
  • open linked artworks
  • delete the exhibition when no other collaborators remain
  • leave the shared exhibition when other collaborators remain

Clone opens the new exhibition form with the original exhibition details already filled in where that form supports them.

The cloned exhibition title starts with Clone of.

Artlope leaves these fields empty in the clone so you can enter a fresh schedule:

  • Start date
  • End date
  • events

The cloned exhibition keeps the selected artworks, including their exhibition-specific artwork details such as price and edition selections.

After you save the cloned exhibition, Artlope opens the new exhibition detail page automatically.
