關於 Advocate Art.

Advocate Art 創立於西元1992年。是由一群想要有經紀人，但不喜歡商業包袱的插畫家們所創立。

我們的精神字母縮寫為『事實』(”F.A.C.T.s”) : 平等 (Fairness)，能力 (Ability)，創意(Creativity)，與信賴 (Trust)。

這精髓代表著我們和對的人一起做對的事。我們認為，我們的原則讓我們與眾不同。

遵照著我們的精神，我們吸引了最有創意的畫家和藝術家，這也使我們能夠吸引到最多，最棒的顧客們的目光。

與我們合作代表的畫家與藝術家擁有他們自由的選則沒有束縛，

但是他們總是選擇與我們 Advocate Art 合作，因為我們的服務給予他們許多的充實和價值。

我們也確保我們的顧客配上我們預先審查過有著同和品味的專業插畫家，這樣不只使工作輕鬆，更有機會能超出期望。

我們有著非常高的保留度，與我們合作都是畫家們的自己的選擇，

團隊中最受歡迎的許多畫家在我們創立時就一直與我們同在！

我們屬於最早讓畫家和客戶直接聯繫的公司，以確保客戶和創作不需透過中間第三者傳遞而受到影響。

我們也是最早提供與我們合作畫家轉售藝術的選則，給他們一個副收入的來源。

現階段我們更進一步為我們的畫家們架設內部系統網站 (ARTicle)，來幫助畫家更透徹地了解業務的後勤部門底細，例如版權管理和信貸控制等。

我們有著非常高的畫家與經紀人的比率，因為我們相信，做生意最重要的就是人與人之間的關係。

我們的客戶還經常用我們當他們的藝術顧問，抱括企劃管理以及的人才資源平台。

Amanda Hendon

Amanda Hendon

Global Manager

Advocate Art Incorporated

從童年的塗鴉到高中的時裝設計，我對藝術的熱情始終如一。我於2015年從帕森藝術學院（Parsons）畢業並獲得插圖學學位，因此對藝術相關的一切充滿熱情。在上學的最後一年，我意識到自己非常喜歡和其他藝術家一起工作。我最喜歡策展，藝術指導以及幫助藝術家出售藝術品的經歷–來到Advocate似乎是最明顯的下一步。我在三月被錄用，然後在七月全職工作，我愛它的每一秒鐘！

我立刻發現Advocate的氛圍充滿啟發性和激勵性–我熱愛與藝術家緊密合作，並看到簡單的草圖如何將其轉化為令人驚嘆的成品。我真的很喜歡學習成為代理人的所有知識，以及隨之而來的一切。結識新客戶，尋找新藝術家並與所涉及的每個人建立良好的關係。在業餘時間，我喜歡收集古董地圖和賀卡，設計臨時紋身，並與我的狗在公園裡閒逛

Harry Bloom

UK Manager

Advocate Art Limited

我在沃里克郡長大，距“英格蘭的中心”僅一箭之遙，然後向南下移，前往布萊頓大學學習插圖。在眾多如此有才華的創意人士中學習，鞏固了我在藝術界工作的雄心，畢業後，我移居倫敦，從事插畫事業。我擔任自由創意人，並在時裝管理部門任職，直到我的插圖實踐接手為止。從那時起，我一直擔任插畫師的全職工作，與全球各地的客戶合作處理從App到廣告的項目，並發行了自己的兒童圖書系列。我現在很想利用自己在實踐中獲得的技能和經驗來幫助指導，支持和賦予其他藝術家力量。我期待與創意者和客戶合作，並為能將他們的項目付諸實踐感到高興。這個行業是巨大的回報，我很高興能成為Advocate Art人才團隊的一員，並為能代表他們的藝術家而感到自豪

亞特蘭大·賈普（Atlanta Japp）

Advocate Art Incorporated

我從肯尼恩學院（Kenyon College）畢業並獲得了藝術史和藝術學位，不僅對藝術產生了濃厚的興趣，而且還了解了它在當今世界中的地位。 作為一名藝術家，我為成功的設計創造了敏銳的眼光。 事實上，我最喜歡的事情之一就是觀看現場藝術品拍賣，因為這是我能夠預見當前和即將到來的市場趨勢的地方。 我在一個藝術愛好者家庭中長大。 實際上，我感覺自己就像是天生的特工，因為它在我的血液中流動。 我的父親和母親都是藝術顧問，評估師和銷售商。 由於他們參與藝術創作，我感到自己像是被帶到創意界一起工作。 在Advocate Art工作非常令人興奮。 這是我對藝術的熱愛和對藝術品銷售的興趣的完美融合。 我很幸運有機會看到美麗的藝術品為生。

從很小的時候起，我就一直對藝術感興趣。 總能發現我在任何可以動手的東西上繪圖！ 在我的整個學習過程中，藝術一直在那裡，因此我決定要從事創意事業。 我於2015年畢業於樸次茅斯大學，獲得插畫和藝術史學位。 自畢業以來，我既擔任自由插畫師，又擔任該行業的其他創意工作，包括在Advocate實習3個月！ 回到Advocate-Art之前，我曾在皇家藝術學院從事展覽協調和藝術品銷售工作2年，而與其他藝術家和客戶合作的純粹樂趣使我想回到這裡並專注於此

UK Agent

Advocate Art Limited

在獲得金斯敦大學插圖專業的學位後，我從事了各種插畫工作，包括：社論，Foster and Partners的建築插圖，兒童圖書插圖，甚至與一些朋友創建了一個小型設計工作室。 通過從事創意工作，我意識到自己享受與客戶互動和建立關係的樂趣，這自然使我想成為插畫代理。

我喜歡結識新的插畫家和藝術家，聽聽他們對工作的熱情和對經驗的了解。 我自己在這個行業工作過，我完全可以理解插畫家/藝術家在此過程中的跌宕起伏。

我真的希望與我打交道的藝術家和客戶與倡導藝術建立一種盡可能有益的關係

A little about me professionally, actually most of my work experience is in art Museums and Galleries.

實習機會

我們在Advocate開展一項積極的實習計劃，希望許多學生或求職者會從中受益。我們吸引藝術史，設計，插圖和相關課程的學生。我們還僱用雙語代理人，因此我們也吸引了語言學生。

我們與許多大學建立了緊密的聯繫，並邀請學生參加問答環節，以便他們就自己的作品集提出建議。我們是D＆AD董事會插圖考試題名的讚助商，並提供比賽獎品，包括5000英鎊的現金！

如果您想了解領先的藝術家代理機構的內部運作，那麼最好的方法是花一些時間與我們一起實習。您將分享我們的日常任務，例如作品集管理，站點維護，項目管理等，但我保證不會做茶！您將了解藝術家的情況簡介，熱門信息以及作為插畫家要做的事才能在現實世界中工作。我們會為您提供參考，這當然會為正確的理由使將來的雇主哭泣。最後，作為紀念品，您會得到崇尚的Advocate快遞袋，如果您完成學期，我們將收取午餐和旅行費用。最小期限是10個工作日-最長30個工作日。

毫無疑問，實習生對於這家繁忙的公司的運作至關重要。我們將在全球範圍內將倡導者的信息傳播給明天的藝術和設計專業人員。我們提供了一個招聘平台（目前有10名員工是從實習生那裡招聘的），我們得到的是幫助，而不是廉價的勞動力。
