Editing is the process of selecting and preparing visual and written information, for publication, for exhibition, for  press and media and for captions and wall texts.

The process can involve mental organisation, often close collaboration with artist or author, and is a creative and precise skill. Whether an archive or a personal project, the skills required are the same, to edit correctly to fit the predetermined end result.
