Select artworks for exhibitions

Select artworks for exhibitions — real work, not an imagined feature: named inside 5 evidenced career tasks. Below are four ready AI prompts for it, one per height of help: do it, make it easier to accept, decide when you are stuck, and change the pattern for good.

The four heights

The same task, four distances: today's deadline, the next reviewer, the stuck moment, the pattern.

I need a selection grid for the upcoming summer show at the gallery. Make a worksheet listing each candidate work, artist, dimensions, insurance value, loan period, condition notes, installation complexity, and curator recommendation, with sortable columns and a filtered printable version for the selection committee on Wednesday.

Improve — make it easier to accept

Before I send this to the selection committee, make the spreadsheet make decisions easy: surface conservation risks and insurance cost up top, make installation complexity and budget impact immediately visible, flag any works that need travel or customs, and highlight what would make a curator hesitate to approve.

Decide — diagnose the stuck moment

The committee asked why a high-value work has a low installation complexity score.

I scored a large mixed-media piece as low complexity but the installer is pushing back about time and scaffold needs. I don't know whether my dimensions, the mounting spec, or the installer's assumptions are wrong. What single verification should I do before the committee meets to avoid an embarrassing reversal?

Become — change the pattern

Across exhibitions we keep under-budgeting for installation time and insurance because we accept…

We repeatedly under-budget for installation and insurance on loans.

Across exhibitions we keep under-budgeting for installation time and insurance because we accept optimistic complexity scores and inconsistent valuation methods. Which habit change—standardising valuation inputs, requiring installer estimate sign-off, or a pre-mortem cost review—will most reliably stop last-minute budget overruns?

Where the evidence lives

Who was seen doing this, and what people really ask.

Software tasks in the LLOS Work Atlas come from evidence, never a feature list: careers attested to do the work, real job descriptions, and the questions people actually ask (with their view counts). Facets — feature, workflow, troubleshoot, administer, deploy, scale — are open metadata: the work decides, not a taxonomy.
