About Tatum Dooley:

Tatum Dooley is a writer and curator living in Toronto, ON. She received a BA of Arts and Contemporary Studies and a MA of Literatures of Modernity from Ryerson University. She writes widely on cultural trends in art, architecture, fashion, and technology. She runs the Instagram account @cdnartforecast, which began from a demand for a platform promoting Canadian artists. Canadian Art Forecast shares the work of artists, with a goal to support emerging Canadian artists.

 

Her writing has appeared in:

- Artforum
- Border Crossings
- Canadian Art
- Editorial Magazine
- Garage Magazine
- The Globe & Mail
- Lapham’s Quarterly
- Hazlitt
- Vogue UK
- The Walrus

 

Dooley's writing has led her to develop close relationships with the art she writes about as well as the art community in Canada. She has learned how to overcome the challenges of being a freelance writer, including taking every "no" as a learning opportunity to improve her pitches and writing. Her experience has given her the ability to consider work beyond her own aesthetic taste, and use critical thinking to locate the work in a historical and cultural context. The process of writing about art can have an incredible impact on an artist's career, and can offer a new way of thinking about a work of art.
