Add my CV and exhibition history
Galleries, curators and juries will look for your CV on your website — and a Word document from 2019 isn't the impression you want to make. On a bernard-hosted site, you paste the raw list and the AI turns it into a proper page.
How it works
- Connect bernard to your AI (once). Log in to bernard, open your site, go to Use your own AI, and paste the setup prompt into your AI to connect it — a one-time setup.
- Paste it into your AI — ChatGPT, Claude, Gemini, whichever you already use — then paste your CV in whatever shape it's in and use the prompt below.
- Approve. The AI sends back a preview link. Check the dates, venues and ordering, press Approve, and the page is live.
Don't tidy the list first — that's the AI's job. It sorts everything into the standard sections, puts exhibitions newest first, formats it consistently, and adds the page to your menu so people can actually find it.
The prompt
“Add my CV and exhibition history to my site as its own page, linked from the menu. Here it is: [paste your CV — exhibitions, awards, residencies, education, collections].”
The [bracketed] parts are yours to fill in. First time? Connect bernard to your AI over MCP — a one-time setup in bernard → your site → Use your own AI — then paste the prompt above.
Questions people ask
- How do I add an artist CV to my website?
- If your site is hosted with bernard, paste your CV — even as a rough list — into the AI you already use — ChatGPT, Claude or Gemini. It builds a properly formatted CV page in your site's style, and nothing goes live until you approve the preview.
- What should go on an artist CV page?
- The usual sections are solo and group exhibitions (newest first), awards and residencies, education, collections and press. Paste what you have — the AI organises it into those sections and you can tell it what to leave out.
- Can I just upload my CV as a PDF?
- You can — files up to 10 MB — but a proper page is better: it's readable on phones and search engines can read it, which a PDF often isn't. Do both if you like: a CV page with a 'download as PDF' link.
- How do I keep it up to date?
- One message per new line — 'add [show] at [venue], [year] to my CV'. The AI slots it into the right section and you approve the preview as usual.
