Contact Our Curatorial Team for Archival Collaborations
Reach the right people at Big Orbit Gallery when your project touches our archives or experimental holdings.
Welcoming Your Archival Inquiries
Archival work often begins with a single precise question. We read every message that arrives through the proper channel and look for projects that align with our ongoing commitments to avant-garde materials.
Send a note that sketches the scope of what you need. Short notes work as well as longer proposals at this stage.
Direct Your Questions to the Appropriate Department
General business questions go to [email protected]. Press and media requests reach the communications desk at [email protected]. Partnership proposals land best with [email protected].
Label the subject line clearly. That single habit speeds routing more than any other step.
The Curators Managing the Collection
Three curators oversee access and interpretation of the holdings. Their combined practice spans sound archives, artist books, and site-specific installations from on the order of four decades.

Elena Voss
Lead Archivist
Focuses on media preservation and cross-collection loans.
Marcus Hale
Curator of Exhibitions
Handles artist-driven activations that draw from the vault.
Response Times and Archival Limitations
Most inquiries receive an initial reply in the neighborhood of ten working days. Complex requests involving physical access or reproduction rights take longer because each item must be assessed on site.
We cannot guarantee immediate viewing slots. Certain fragile materials remain restricted until conservation work finishes, yet we always explain the reason and suggest workable alternatives.
