Here you will find a collection of resources, tutorials and all sorts of other useful information for both artists and art collectors. We cover the rather broad topics of buying and selling artwork, gaining exposure in the artwork and amongst other artists, exhibitions, a general FAQ and other category for articles that don’t yet have a proper home to come under.
These are not tutorials as such. Though some may take this format these articles are not designed to be read through in any logical sequence. Instead you are free to dive in anywhere and explore just those subjects that are of interest to you.
We encourage you to bookmark this page and, whenever you have some free time, come back and spend a little more time going through the advice and we hope, wisdom that has been collected here.

Q: How can I find an agent to represent my art?
A: The "artist agent" is basically a myth. Art dealers and galleries represent artists-- that's about the closest thing to agents in artland, and they're the ones you should be contacting. A small percentage of artists have what you could call agents or representatives-- more like managers really-- but these artists tend to be highly successful and established in their careers, and so overwhelmed with dealer, gallery, museum, and collector requests that they hire professionals to handle their business affairs. |
