Finding Words offers editorial work and translations to support the development and publication of your ideas.
EDITORIAL WORK
Choosing the right words to strengthen an argument or to clarify an idea is key to any written text. This search for words requires consideration of contexts, target audience, publication medium and format. I would like to share my passion for words and writing with you and help you clarify
– project outlines and concept notes,
– research proposals,
– funding applications,
– books and book chapters,
– research articles,
– dissertations,
– essays,
– artist statements and biographies,
– exhibition catalog texts,
– program booklets,
– and any other text you need to finalize.
If you’re looking for someone to manage the publication project that’s been waiting far too long on your to do list, let’s discuss it and get it done.
TRANSLATIONS
From academic to artistic research, from project outlines to press releases: finding the right words is at the core of translating different text genres. With my feel for clarity, rhythm, linguistic specificities, and individual authors’ styles, I will transfer your ideas from English, French, and Spanish into German.
DR. JOHANNA SCHINDLER
I am trained as a cultural scholar and arts manager and wrote a PhD on artistic research. I have worked as a curatorial assistant at Kunstmuseum Liechtenstein, as a manager of the International Association of Curators of Contemporary Art, as a research fellow at Zeppelin University, Germany and adjunct faculty at the University of Connecticut, as a researcher and coordinator at Haus der Kulturen der Welt, Berlin, and as the managing editor of the Journal of Cultural Management and Cultural Policy.
I am using German and English both professionally and in private contexts every day, and I speak French and Spanish fluently. In addition to this passion for languages and writing, I love to sing, for example as member of the choir Vokalsystem in Berlin. Yoga and running are as much part of my life as is capturing impressions while traveling or walking the streets.
