Hello and welcome to my website.
I am an art consultant, curator and writer with over 13 years’ experience of developing exhibitions, programming bespoke creative events, managing artists and their estates, advising on the acquisition and commissioning of artworks, and writing about culture.
During an MA in Art History at the University of Oxford, I specialised in modern and contemporary art. Since then, I have gained extensive knowledge of the art world by working for Sotheby’s Institute of Art, Connaught Brown in Mayfair, the Estorick Collection of Modern Italian Art and the Ashmolean Museum.
I am the author of MUSE (Penguin, 2022) which uncovers the true stories of 30 muses, from Dora Maar and Elizabeth Siddal to George Dyer and Peter Schlesinger. My first children’s book, This Book Will Make You An Artist (Nosy Crow, 2023), invites children to take creative inspiration from great artists of the past, while I recently worked as a consultant on a Ladybird Read It Yourself art title.
I write about the visual arts for publications including TIME, The Independent, the Telegraph, Art UK and Dazed. As a modern and contemporary art expert and confident speaker, I have been featured on TV and radio including Sky Arts, the BBC, C4, ITV and TRT World. Most recently, I co-presented a documentary on ‘The Bohemians of Balsall Heath’ with Stewart Lee for BBC R4.
Working with museums and galleries, I have written extended essays for exhibition catalogues on artists including Emmy Bridgwater, Samin Ahmadzadeh, Annette Pugh, Shani Rhys James, Baltasar Lobo, Ben Nicholson and Julie van der Vaart. In 2019, I wrote a catalogue on the artist Eric Tucker to accompany a major show at Warrington Museum and Art Gallery, achieving national press coverage.
Recent freelance curatorial projects include Reframing the Muse at ROSL in Mayfair, London Art Fair’s 2023 Platform and curating luxury apartments in The Goodsyard, Birmingham.
I lecture on art history, and have spoken at a range of venues including The 92nd Street Y, New York, Dulwich Picture Gallery, The Holburne Museum, the University of Oxford and Sotheby’s Institute of Art.

Ruth Millington on Coffee, Chagall & Challenging the Art World
Meet the Birmingham-based art and culture blogger
I met with Ruth over a coffee in Birmingham’s iconic library. Sipping a latte, she is modest about her achievements, both in the art world, and online. Ruth is a Birmingham-based blogger, currently working on reviving the city’s Shakespeare Memorial Library. Working to secure £1 million in National Lottery funding for the project, she is much more than a behind-the-scenes blogger. Her beautifully curated blog, ruthmillington.com, covers all things Birmingham and beyond, from theater reviews, to upcoming exhibitions, to how to get a job in the art world.
Our in depth chat covers Ruth’s work and education, as well as a juicy low down on Birmingham’s best bits. The art world is a tough place, and everybody navigates it differently; hearing about Ruth’s progression from undergrad to gallery assistant, to being where she wants to be is both inspiring and encouraging.
Having confronted the art world head to head for over eight years, we touch on the exploitative nature of arts internships, and how she’s made a tangible difference. To find out about Brum, it’s eclectic art scene, and ones to watch, read on….

What did you study to get to where you are today?
I went to Durham University… originally I was going to study English and classics, but when I applied they said “oh you you have to pick a third subject”, so I picked art history. Then I realised that actually, it was the best bit of my course! So, then I changed my course to be mainly classics and art history. In my final year my dissertation was on Paula Rego on contemporary artists and how they use fairytales, and I thought, “this is really interesting, I want to spend even more time on this”. Then I went to do a Masters in art history at Oxford, specialising in modern and contemporary art history. And I would say to everybody, go and do a Masters if you want to work in a gallery! Because specialising is really important when there’s so much competition.
I’m a big believer in experience; does a Masters really open doors that a BA degree can’t?
For my Masters I specialised in contemporary women artists and fairytales, but I also wrote two papers on Futurism and Italian art. When I went for my job interview at the Estorick, it was like “I know my stuff on this” and they really appreciated that; I think that’s what got me that job. The other thing is, you make a really good network of people during that time, and you have a whole year to spend in that one subject. I used that time to do work experience, so I worked at the Ashmolean volunteering, I did an internship over Christmas at Christie’s, and then I worked for an education charity alongside my studies. You just have this whole year and space to spend time thinking about what you want to do. I was worried that if I just did my BA, I’d be rushing things.
“I find that a lot of people who come here by accident love Birmingham, and become ambassadors for the city”
What are you working on at the moment?
Oh God!
“Nightmare question?!” I chip in.
So okay – I’m currently employed by the University of Birmingham, and I work on various art projects. Last year I ran a literary festival, I set up arts internships for students around Birmingham, and then at the moment I’m working on a Shakespeare project for the library. And my job has been project manager, so mainly writing the bid (70,000 words!). I’ve been balancing doing that and having a permanent role, with freelance work which I’ve been doing in evenings and weekends, which is a little bit… I never take any time off!
“Who do you do your freelance writing for?”
I’ve got a few nice clients now where it’s regular every month. One of those is a gallery called Rise Art, and my job is to write the blog. I write about 500 words every month about whatever I want, which is nice! I also write for a newspaper in Dubai, strangely, and the editor over there is also the editor of a fashion magazine… So what I’d say is, if you get in with one editor, then they’re often working on something else and they’ll get in touch again, if you’ve done a good job! [laughs] I’ve also written stuff and never heard from the editor ever again… that piece wasn’t my best!
Giorgio de Chirico, ‘The Revolt of the Sage’, 1916, The Estorick Collection
Are you a true Brummie?!
I am now, I’m adopted! I think like a lot of people, I’m basically here by accident. I find that a lot of people who come here by accident love the city, and become ambassadors for the city. I came from London, and my quality of life here is so much better than in London. I can walk to work! The arts scene here is smaller, but it’s more inclusive and open and welcoming, and that’s why I love Birmingham. I see myself as a brummie now.
When and why did you decide to start your blog?
I moved from London to Birmingham three years ago for a job at the University, and all my friends were like “why the hell are you moving to Birmingham?! There’s no art in Birmingham!” so then I was sort of on a mission to find out if there was any art. I found that there was quite a lot going on, but nobody knew about it, and no one was writing about it. There’s hardly any national coverage of art events going on in Birmingham, so I was like, I know, I’ll start a blog! Also, because my job at the university wasn’t in a gallery any more, whereas before it had been, I wasn’t working directly with artworks and I wanted to stay connected. So just for me, it was to make sure that I was going to things and thinking about them. It sort of evolved – I went to a gallery opening, which was really good, probably drank too much wine, and got home and thought, “I’m going to write a blog post about it”. From there, it went from me asking people “can I come to your show, can I interview your artist?” to then gradually being contacted and asked to come to events to write about them. It’s grown from there, and it’s pretty much all Birmingham focused. I just wish I had more time to spend on it, because making money from a blog is very difficult.

“I once took a Chagall painting to Paris on the Eurostar. I got a coffee, and I was like… don’t spill the coffee on the Chagall!”
Let’s get technical for a minute… do you tailor your content to what people are searching for? Or just write about what you enjoy?
So I started off just writing about what I fancied, and I probably had about ten readers a week. But I’ve become a little bit more tactical now, so I’d say I write two sorts of blog posts. One is just the stuff I want to write about, either topics that I care about, or shows I’ve seen that I really enjoyed. The other is answering questions that I know people are asking, you know, where can I see exhibitions in Birmingham… and then I would add to that question. Those posts do best over a longer time through Google rankings. I use Analytics, so I can see what’s popular, and I can also see what people are searching for on Google and answer that question. Just doing a bit of SEO work has doubled how many readers I have… I was dating a software developer and he was like, “you need to do some more SEO”, and initially I was like nah… but now I’ve learnt it and you may as well, because you want people to read your stuff! If you’ve gone to all that effort to write something, you’ll have ten thousand people reading it as opposed to ten.
Do you have a content schedule?
No. [laughs] I don’t and I probably should… if it weren’t for my full time job then I could be more organised. I tend to fit it around my full time job when I can. If I’ve seen something in the week, like the Sackler Foundation, which sparks something in my brain and I think, I want to write about that; I’ll write it on a Sunday. I don’t want my blog to become a job; it’s a hobby but it’s also a portfolio through which people contact me to do freelance work.
Your blog is a great platform to find out about art and culture in Birmingham and beyond – how do you research your content?
That’s changed since year one, and now year three. So at first, I was going out hunting for what’s going on. I would spend a lot of time going to galleries and asking what they’ve got coming up and which artists they’re going to be showing. From me going out hunting, people now contact me. Once you’re on the press list, people tend to ask you! [Getting on a press list] happens quite organically. Going to lots of events, and joining that network of people throughout Birmingham, then people know about the blog. So for example, Birmingham Museum can track how many people come to an exhibition off the back of my blog, and how many people click through the link. Now they contact me and say “can you advertise this on your blog?”. It is something that I could monetise, but they give me lots of backlinks, share my blog on social media, and free tickets for events and exhibitions, and invite me to nice parties! And I’m happy with that.

So you’ve worked in commercial galleries – what did you do?
My first job was in a museum, I worked as an education officer – this was The Estorick Collection. I was running their education programme, which was kind of crazy because I was like 22. They liked the fact that I specialised during my Masters in Italian art… and I think they wanted someone young to come in and take the reigns. Then I got a job as a gallery assistant / researcher. My job was to research all the artworks that we got in for sale, and then tell the clients why they should buy this Picasso, and not another one. It was mostly Modern Master and Impressionist work, but then we had four contemporary artists as well.
That job covered basically everything – it was meant to be a researcher role, but I was a PA for the director, I did bookkeeping for the gallery, I shipped works around the world, sometimes I was a courier for the artworks… it is quite stressful. I once took a Chagall painting to Paris on the Eurostar. I got a coffee, and I was like “don’t spill the coffee on the Chagall!”. In a gallery like that, there were only three of us, and you do everything. It’s a really good job to get; I would always say to go into a small organisation first, because you learn and see so much more.
“The best thing that’s come from being a blogger… apart from free cocktails? [laughs] Meeting people”
What’s the best thing that’s come from being a blogger?
Apart from free cocktails? [laughs] Meeting people. I’ve made some really good friends. For example, at Reuben Colley Fine Arts on Colmore Row, I covered an exhibition by an artist called Danny Howes, who is a great portrait painter. He was a runner up for Sky’s Portrait Artist of the Year. He’s been commissioned to do a series of paintings for a new museum in Dublin, and he’s got some new exhibitions coming up. Off the back of interviewing him and writing about him, we became friends, and he has since painted my portrait! So it’s things like that which money can’t buy. Or sometimes I’ve written about artists on my blog, and they can’t pay me so they’ve given me artworks – I’ve also started a collection of contemporary artworks from artists in Birmingham. That’s why I like to keep it as a hobby and not try to monetise it, because these are the things which I like to get out of the blog.
You worked to make arts internships more accessible; how did you do it?
I joined the University of Birmingham with a job to set up arts internships for students. My job was to find organisations that would be happy to take a student for say, a 6 month internship. I then saw a problem in that they were all unpaid, which is really unfair. So I set myself the task of finding funding. Over the next few years I managed to get some funding; in the end we got £60,000 of funding, so 60 students got paid internships which was really good.
You mentioned unpaid internships; the art world seems to be sustained by unpaid work – how did you secure funding for students?
Two ways – one was through a pot of money for universities setting up innovative projects. I wrote a grant application where you have to show what the need is, and what the impact would be and then we were lucky enough to get some funding from that. The second way was through private individuals. We managed to contact university alumni who are now successful in arts positions, and remember how difficult it was when they were starting out. So they identify with the scheme, and donated some money as well.

Let’s talk Birmingham. Can you tell us about any upcoming events or exhibitions?
Theater wise, I’m really looking forward to Matthew Bourne’s production of Romeo and Juliet, which is coming to the Hippodrome Theater. There’s an exhibition at Eastside Projects of a female South African artist, and her work looks great. She does huge mural wall paintings, looking at race and gender identity. September is the best time for the art world; loads of new shows open and there’s all this stuff going on. There’s a new gallery called Iron House in the Jewellery Quarter and they’re going to have an exhibition of street artists – they’ve got ten artists signed up to create work on-site.
What’s your favourite place in Birmingham?
I like St Paul’s Square in the Jewellery Quarter. It’s got everything you could want, a little piece of green, a graveyard… [laughs]. There are lots of galleries around it, nice bars and restaurants… it’s just so pretty and feels really authentic to Birmingham and its heritage. [In terms of galleries] One to watch is Odox, next door to Iron House on Great Hampton Row in the Jewellery Quarter. They’ve got six studio spaces in there, and an exhibition space. It’s quite small but they’re bridging this gap between fine art, illustration, graphics, design… trying to break down the exclusivity of the art world. I feel like they’re one to watch.

Working in the Arts: Ruth Millington

We have revived our Working in the Arts segment and this month we talked to Ruth Millington from Sotheby’s Institute of Art.
So, where do you work? What is your job title?
I am Head of Careers at Sotheby’s Institute of Art, based in London’s beautiful Bedford Square, Bloomsbury. It’s an area with so much art history, and the British Museum is just a 2-minute walk away. I’m also a freelance arts writer, which I do from my less-glamorous kitchen table!
What are your key tasks?
At Sotheby’s Institute, I manage the Careers Service for students who are undertaking Masters, semester and GAP programmes with us. I am responsible for designing and delivering workshops on CV and cover letter writing, networking and building a brand online. I also host events, often with alumni speakers from across the international art world returning to share their careers advice with our community. Much of my day is spent offering 1:1 careers appointments to students, and this is my favourite part of the role – especially when they take on board advice and use it to gain the job of their dreams! I also love setting up internships and placements for students, in galleries, auction houses, art advisory firms and more.
What time did you wake up? What are you usual working hours?
I am not a morning person! But I do like to have some time to myself before starting work, so I get up around 7.30am and make coffee. Typical Sotheby’s Institute hours are 9-5, but events often run during evenings, and I will do my freelance writing work during evenings and weekends.
What was your career path to this role?
I started my career in museums and galleries. During my own Masters in Art History, I volunteered at the Ashmolean Museum in Oxford (and I always advise students to volunteer, as it lets you have a taster of a job role and sector). This experience on my CV helped me to secure a job as an Education Officer at the Estorick Collection, where I ran family art programmes, school workshops and tours of the museum. From there, I went to work in commercial galleries, taking on more and more writing in my jobs. My next step was into Higher Education, where I have managed alumni relations and careers services within arts departments. When the job came up at Sotheby’s Institute of Art, I knew I had to apply! For many of us in the arts, our career paths will be a squiggly line. My job now brings together my background in both the arts and higher education, while I keep writing when I can! This year, I published my first book, Muse (Penguin) which tells the stories of 30 muses from art history. Being involved in the arts really helps me in my role as a careers adviser, as I can offer up-to-date and relevant advice, which I have had to follow myself!
What are the best and worst things about your job?
I love the variety of my job – in just one day I could have a meeting with a new NFT gallery in Mayfair, meet a student to give them careers advice and run an evening networking event for alumni, where I get to learn from them. And last year, I spent some time on our New York campus, which overlooks the Chrysler Building!
What careers advice would you give to your 18 year old self with the benefit of hindsight?
Follow your heart. I was often told that I shouldn’t study art because it wasn’t a proper subject, and that a career in the arts would be difficult, if not impossible. Stay true to what you love, keep learning and you will become an expert in your field.
Have you had a secret job that is not on your CV?
Many! I always had temp jobs while studying at university, and the best of these was house sitting for various clients. One of them had 4 cats that were always fighting, and I had strict instructions to keep them from clawing each other. But that same client had a hot tub in the garden…so no complaints from me!
Thank you to Ruth for taking the time to talk to us and look out for future insights into the art world. Find out more about Sotheby’s Institute of Art here.

Millington, Ruth THIS BOOK WILL MAKE YOU AN ARTIST Nosy Crow (Children's None) $24.99 2, 6 ISBN: 9798887770420
From cave handprints and Roman mosaic floors to Yayoi Kusama's polka-dot pumpkin, works sure to inspire burgeoning artists.
This survey of selected artists across the globe and throughout history introduces young readers to various styles, media, and techniques. Millington starts by discussing what artists do, where they work, and what tools and materials they need. Next, the author briefly profiles more than 20 artists, focusing on their art and offering clear instructions for making similar creations. Racially diverse children, several of whom use wheelchairs, are depicted making vibrant self-portraits like Frida Kahlo's and pop art-style prints like Andy Warhol's. Readers get fascinating glimpses into artists such as Judith Scott, who was deaf and had Down syndrome; after being released from an institution by her twin sister, she blossomed into a fiber artist. Ukrainian artist Janet Sobel pioneered drip painting; Hugo Ball, the German founder of Dadaism, gave unusual poetry recitations; Moses Williams, enslaved as a youth, became a renowned silhouette-maker. Famous names such as Leonardo da Vinci, Claude Monet, and Pablo Picasso are here, but so are more recent and potentially unfamiliar artists, including South African muralist Esther Mahlangu and Emily Kame Kngwarreye, an Aboriginal artist known for her batiks. Detailed, collagelike illustrations using flat, cut-out shapes and vibrant colors honor these people's art without attempting to compete with it.
Will definitely boost aspirants' creative output. (glossary) (Illustrated nonfiction. 8-12)

Muse: Uncovering the Hidden Figures Behind Art History's Masterpieces
Ruth Millington. Pegasus, $27.95 (320p) ISBN 978-1-63936-155-7
Art historian Millington explodes the entrenched stereotype "of a young, attractive, female muse, existing at the mercy of an influential, older male artist" in this fascinating revisionist debut. Determined to rehabilitate the term muse--which she believes, over time, "has come to carry patronising, sexist and pejorative connotations"--Millington gives long-overdue credit to 30 figures who, she argues, should be regarded as "momentous, empowered and active agent[s] of art history." Though Anna Christina Olson was born with a degenerative disease that left her unable to walk, it was her bodily ease and her friendship with artist Andrew Wyeth (who would "comb her hair and wash her face") that inspired Wyeth's iconic painting Christina's World(1948). Likewise, model Grace Jones allowed Keith Haring to use her body as a canvas, a work of art immortalized in the photographs of Robert Mapplethorpe. Other significant creative interchanges that Millington analyzes are those of Picasso and his "Weeping Woman," Dora Marr; David Hockney and Peter Schlesinger; and Beyonce and the Ethiopian American photographer Awol Erizku, whose works and use of Black women subjects upend outdated concepts of race and gender. Concluding with an impassioned seven-point "Muse Manifest," Millington advocates for an "emancipated muse," by demanding respect and "mutual benefit [for] both parties involved." This brilliantly illuminates how the act of portraiture is a two-way street. (May)
