wordpress custom archive pages

I'm developing a wordpress page and I'm looking for the best practices to send custom DB queries. I created a archive page with a list of artists. These names are stored in a custom post type's custom taxonomy. Now I want to code links on every name, which should lead the visitor to a page where all the posts that have this artists name in this custom field.

I know how to create the custom DB query, but how do I submit the name? Just over a normal POST-request? Is there a convenient way to do this within WP?

Thanks for your help. Dan
