Between Creativity and Commerce: Art Thinking – Amy Whitaker
“Many of the things that people approach in business – when they’re talking about a business plan or return on investment – they’re really talking about similar things to what happens in art.”
Balancing Art, Life, and Business – Aletta de Wal
Artists need to ask themselves, “What do I need to support myself and my family and my art business in the way that I’m accustomed to or want to and what it’s going to take for me to get that?”
Economics of the Art Market – Neil Ramsay
“Business has a hard time understanding the arts, so… I’m advocating for the professionalizing, that within the organization, the artist is seen just as professional as the accountant, just as professional as the director and the other typical roles…”
Playing Your Art Forward – Sabin Howard
“It’s important that an artist be involved in showing their work and takes ownership of what he makes rather than have somebody else take over his business.”
The Long-Term Art Career – Ryan S. Brown
“As an artist, you’re a small business owner and you’re in charge, you’re the boss, and you have to manage that like any other small business would be managed. You have to keep your books organized, plan for big expenses, and plan for investing in those big projects.”
Create A Thriving Art Business – Alan Bamberger
“Artists have never had more opportunities to advocate on their own behalves, to get their work out there, to talk about what’s behind it, to talk about themselves as artists.”
Make Your Art Economically Viable – Elizabeth Corkery
The Business Accelerator Program allowed me to “discover how applicable a lot of those strategies would be for promoting my personal work as well.”
Project Management: An Impressionistic Art Form – Ghost of a Dream
“I think we make better art because we’re really truthful with each other, and we can tell each other exactly how we feel something is being read or how it gets taken.”
