A space for those who bring art into the world.
There's a path beside art galleries and stores: art fairs. It's not an easy one: lots of travels, lots of feedback, lots of learnings. And hopefully, it's a great one. One where your work improves from talking with many of the show attendees and where you become more inspired by many of the artists and their work.
Before the internet, learning about and applying to art fairs were a lot more challenging. People had to fill in paper applications, provide slides of art pieces for those slideshow projectors, and enclose stamped envelopes. Even today, there's not a lot of great content out there about these events or a lot of it is outdated. A lot of times, artists only learn about fairs by swapping info and experiences. Moreover, the content on the web provided by art fairs aren't always accurate.
Hopefully, this will become a space where there's greater transparency with events and where artists will know what they are signing up for.
Sincerely,
Audrey V.
