This thread is resolved. Here is a description of the problem and solution.
Problem: I have a one-to-many relationship set up between two post types. In the child post single page, I would like to display a View of other sibling child posts.
Solution: This feature does not currently exist in Blocks, but in classic Views you can create a Query Filter for post relationship, where the parent post is set by a shortcode attribute "wpvrelatedto". Then you can provide the current post's parent post ID in the View shortcode as shown here:
[wpv-view name="your-child-view-slug" wpvrelatedto="[wpv-post-id item='@relationship-slug.parent']"]

Hello, you need a way to filter a View of child posts by the parent of the current page. There's not currently a way to achieve this in Views built in the Block Editor, but we're working to improve that feature in upcoming releases. In classic Views, you can achieve this with a post relationship filter, where the parent post is set by a shortcode attribute like wpvrelatedto. See the screenshot here for an example. Be sure the checkbox for "Don't include the current page in the query result" is checked so the current post will not appear in the View results.
When you place the View in your single Artwork template using a shortcode, you can supply the current post's parent ID in the wpvrelatedto attribute using the wpv-post-id shortcode, the item attribute, and the relationship slug syntax, like this:
[wpv-view name="your-child-view-slug" wpvrelatedto="[wpv-post-id item='@relationship-slug.parent']"]
Replace your-child-view-slug with the slug or name of your View, and replace relationship-slug with the slug of your Artist - Artwork post relationship. You can find the slug in Toolset > Relationships when you edit the post relationship.
Let me know if you have questions about this approach.
