How To Approach An Art Gallery With Photos

So now that you have made a collection of works of art, you can dream that comes in an art gallery. This may seem a little intimidating, because artists are generally poor and often lack the marketing skills or confidence to approach a gallery director who present themselves as a serious artist.

I am an artist who has shown in galleries, but I'm a rare breed, because I also worked with art sales, and was a director of an art gallery. I decided to write this editorial to provide opportunities for both artist and gallery to provide advice and information to help artists successfully approach a gallery of their work.

I hope these tips will help you in your journey:

Let us consider first, however, this scenario director of the gallery view.

Administrator functions are large, but they are mainly to showcase artists who are part of the gallery "issue" and to promote and sell their work, while building relationships with customers and generate sales.

A potential customer can walk through the doors of the gallery at any time without notice. Therefore, it is imperative that the manager and sales staff is always available to give attention to these potential customers. Therefore, it is a very bad idea to walk with a lot of art without an appointment first because it would be very disrespectful and unless it is a very quiet day which n 'do not get the time and attention it needs.

Before you approach an art gallery, ask yourself:

It's my artistic style and subject fit the style and direction of the tunnel?

For example: If you are considering the gallery displays only European figurative subjects by artists published, and you paint the local landscape, your style and the subject is not easy to fit into the "style and direction" of the gallery. But do not be afraid to speak with the manager because he / she will probably be a gallery or a decision that is best suited to display and hopefully sell your personal style.

Before coming to the meeting with the director gallery, we should first:

Get ready:

Write a personal biography and print it on one side of the high-quality paper: Outline of its history, and anything relevant to your growth as an artist. Discuss why the paint. Try to describe your style. See the artists, or other things that might have inspired or influenced you. Mention if you are a self-taught or formally trained. Include a photo at the top the better. Mention any art contests or prizes you have won. Make your bio is easy to read, and honest one, because the bio is intended to make "personal contact" card reader.

make a business card. Include a graph of your art, your name, phone number, website address and link all social media.

Print quality postcard size color samples of your finest art.
