Want to know more in five minutes or less? Here’s a little peek into ‘The Jealous Curator’:ĭanielle Krysa has a BFA in Visual Arts, and a post-grad in graphic design. In October of 2018, my latest book, “A BIG IMPORTANT ART BOOK – Now With Women” hit shelves worldwide, and a followup will be released Fall 2019 … stay tuned! (I also did a TEDx talk on the subject, if you’d like to watch it.).
This lead to the idea behind my first book, titled “ CREATIVE BLOCK“, that was released by Chronicle Books in 2014, and then a more in-depth follow up book, titled “Your Inner Critic Is A Big Jerk”, which was released Fall 2016 – both as a hardcover and as an audio book. If we share openly about this, about the vulnerability that comes with being creative, all of us will benefit. It worked!Īs I move forward with the site, I’ve realized that what I’m most interested in is, of course sharing/exposing the work of talented contemporary artists through my daily posts, but I’m also absolutely fascinated with the self-doubt part – the insecurities, inner-critics, creative blocks, and of course the jealousy that all of us have to deal with at some point. I started the blog to document the work I loved, but more importantly, I wanted to find a way to flip the jealousy into something positive – admiration and inspiration to be specific. I felt like I’d never have any of that – and I was right – because I wasn’t making art! I was stuck, and so busy comparing myself to everyone else that I didn’t even allow myself to be creative.
Yes, I was jealous of other artists’ work, their lives, their success, their studios. The Jealous Curator launched in 2009, as a place for me to show artwork that “made me jealous”.
