How to get our work into galleries and stores?

Oky Moky,

> Do you have any suggestions on how to get our work into galleries> and stores?>> Amy> moderator There are dozens of different ways:1. For fine art, rent a space for a month, hang a show and inviteabsolutely everyone, then call the press. Gets lots of photos, collectany and all coverage in the press, then use that publicity to approachgalleries. 2. Hit lots of outdoor shows, hand out not only cards but statements ofyour artistic philosophy, etc. And, maybe, make a few sales on the side. Let’s face it, most…

The toilet plunger is Art

Oky Moky

Spot was a upcoming famous Artist along with Andy Warhol. In art university You will find him under the category of artists over the edge.

Toilet plunge as an artwork

Oky Moky,

Hi all, I hope you all had a nice holiday and nice celebration of this newyear. The poll`s question is really surprising to me. The question seemsto me more philosophical then business part of it. I mean, you testthe idea: “can this object, with this idea, be an object of art?”.The answers are upon you all. I am open to test your ideas here. Also I encourage you for this.But I am curious about this question why “toilet”? why not just abox or a briefcase? The postmodern times question… Just…

Art and Fine Craft dissimilarity

Oky Moky,

Hi Ed!Your thoughts identify some of the gray areas that make thisdiscussion never ending. I agree that a song is still art, no matter how many times itsplayed. Your Moby Dick example was also excellent. I could add tothat a ceramicist who makes the same vase, (without using a form ormold)…the design is the same but each piece is generallyconsidered art. In my own opinion, and in my experience the general opinion, is thatI can create a series of chairs, for example, that are similar. Eachone is “art”. However, if…

Artwork: unique or hundred replica?

Oky Moky

Would like to repond to a point that you had made. “A “maker” whorepeats is same design over and over is not creating art either.” Absolutely correct, repetition is not creating but recreating art.Through your definition, your daughters drawings are art because theyare and interpretation of the world through her eyes. Is a visionany less of a vision because you did it twice? Maybe the artistry isin recreating the feeling of the original piece or maybe in producingthe piece. Maybe art isn’t held within the piece at all, maybe it…

What makes the world call Van Gogh and lets say Andy Warhol, an “Artist”?

Oky Moky

I’m thinking about Van Gogh’s mother and brother. The world considershim a great artist with a passion and an obsession to paint and get hisemotions out onto the canvas. If he lived today would be thought of asa great artist or a loser? What did his mother think of him? Hisbrother believed in him and kept him in paint and paid the rent, buthis art did not sell when he was alive. Hmmmm, what makes the world call Van Gogh and lets say Andy Warhol, an“Artist”? Why does their art…

Artworks price bargain

Oky Moky,

A different Idea that came from Dan of Woodworking group. The main idea I see here is:The PLACEMENT of your show is affecting its price, and the place you are is influencing client psychology for accepting or not the price you are showing. So for making your work as valuable art object; either you should show in fine arts shows or the best on my opinion is to show in your shop. Your shop should be placed at a quality street. But quality doesn`t mean luxury and over priced shops. The…
