Social Media Lead

Job Description
About HdM GALLERY:
Founded in Beijing in 2009, HdM is a leading international gallery specialising in contemporary art across various mediums including painting, sculpture, video, and installation.
HdM has expanded significantly since its inception, recently relocating to a spacious new venue spanning over 500 square meters in Beijing. In 2018, we established international offices in London and Paris.
The gallery is dedicated to supporting recognised artists from different backgrounds, with many of HdM’s Chinese artists being emerging talents, and showcasing their work internationally. Our international artists are typically more established, and HdM focuses on introducing their work to new audiences in China.
