Love this article!!!! I like to try to cross-pollinate with different artistic medium for surprising results. But love the idea of calling on experiences and emotions from your day job to guide your artistic work!! I have a project coming up in a few weeks that does just that! Blending my love for art with my world as an emergency room physician. Stay tuned.
Most artists based in the United States take on day jobs due to the high cost of living. Success is often measured by their ability to quit a day job and focus full-time on creating art. Yet these day job positions—even if unrelated to an artist’s practice—are not always impediments to their careers. A new exhibition co-curated by Veronica Roberts, the John and Jill Freidenrich Director of the Cantor Arts Center, reveals how day jobs can spur creative growth by providing artists with new materials and methods, hands-on knowledge of a specific industry that becomes an area of artistic investigation, or a predictable paycheck and structure that enable unpredictable ideas.

Opportunities for artists often come in the form of submitting an RFP (Request for Proposal). These require artists to invest time and creativity into detailed proposals, often without the promise of compensation or even acknowledgment. This not only undervalues the artist's effort but also erects barriers to accessibility and equity in the arts community. It's a system that has often left many capable artists behind, especially those who cannot afford to invest resources in speculative work. At Lions & Rabbits Center for the Arts, we advocate for a fairer approach through RFQs (Requests for Qualifications). By submitting to our RFQ Flash Book, we can showcase your existing work to more potential clients without additional unpaid labor from you. Your submission should include: -A selection of images from your past work that best represent your artistic capabilities and the type of projects you are good at. -Bio information that details your background, experience, and relevant skills, helping potential clients understand your journey and expertise. -Contact information for previous clients or organizations who can attest to your experience and competence, providing an added layer of credibility. This process not only makes it easier for clients to find the right artist for their projects but also ensures that your time and effort are respected and valued. You can submit your portfolio by signing up on our website's RFQ page. https://lnkd.in/g5U5bKbk

As a curator, I am frequently sharing with artists the importance of sharing and creating a cohesive body of work. While it’s great to explore and experiment with a huge variety of mediums and ideas, it helps gallerists, collectors, and curators to understand artists and their work when they share an in-depth exploration that is cohesive. Statistically they are more likely to buy or select an artist when they understand that the work will be of the same style or concept. But how does one do that? We’re so proud to share 60+ articles on professional practice - sharing details and support from preventing burnout, choosing insurance, marketing and branding, website work, statement and bio support, and so much more. When we can share art business tips and tools, it breaks down the barriers that have been gatekeeping artists - it enables and empowers artists to learn more, advance in their careers, and succeed as a professional working artist. Many of these articles have cited sources for additional resources and guidance. See this and all of our articles here - https://lnkd.in/gqpCMUJB

This is an interesting question, and the debates will likely continue. Scholarship is constantly evolving as new research is uncovered. And it's a totally plausible scenario since artists often do "borrow" from each other and don't give credit to the original creator. #artworld #artresearch #artnews #intellectualproperty #artmarket

I’ve been pretty quiet on Linked In for the past few weeks but behind the scenes… To recap, a long time ago in a universe far away I decided that a career in biochemistry was not for me, but that this computer stuff sounded interesting. Cue 40+ years in Computer Services & Software sales, helping clients of every size & persuasion to overcome their challenges and transform their organisations; object modelling, case based reasoning, conversational AI, videos featuring Griff Rhys-Jones & Mel Smith - it’s been a fun ride. I worked with some brilliant people, made some wonderful friends and learned a lot. Indeed, I’ve seen things you people wouldn’t believe 🙂 I’ve now entered a new chapter in my life. I’m the proud dad to three amazing young adults, one of whom is Will. He’s an incredibly talented digital artist and illustrator who eats, sleeps and breathes art. And he always has - from the age of 4 Will would be up and dressed at least 1 hour before his reception class so that he could do his art. Will was drawing perfect circles, freehand, aged 6. And that passion and ability have never, ever left him. Entirely self-taught, Will has clients across the globe, was gaining real traction in the art world, and due to display his work at an exhibition hosted by Red Bull Studios - then came the pandemic. Will kept his focus and work ethic; some of you may have seen his work on the short film Can’t Kill Us All (BBC Arts Culture in Quarantine) which was released in July 2020, Kojey Radical fans will be familiar with his work as well. There is, however, no substitute for exhibitions; to experience his artwork up close, not just through your screen, and to meet and converse with the artist. Exhibitions are returning but even supremely talented, committed and dedicated artists need to be promoted. And that’s what my New Chapter is - Dad the general factotum, coordinator, any and everything that’s focused on getting Will’s brand (SkwaamsLeftHand) and talent out to the widest possible market, releasing his time to do what he loves and does best - the creation and execution of stunning art, across multiple genres - as you can see here https://lnkd.in/gEzN69uk. I’m not turning my back on decades of experience in the industry and I am doing other stuff - I’ve resumed my weekly podcast and have other plans - but my Linked In presence will focus on SkwaamsLeftHand. To find out more just email [email protected] To be continued...

"I'm everyone! You are no one!" - ❌ We need to talk about inclusivity vs. taste. If you follow the art world in any way, you know there’s been no love lost between mega-critic #JerrySaltz and mega-artist #RefikAnadol, who most recently exhibited a stunningly-sized installation The Museum of Modern Art that Saltz, in his review for New York Magazine, called, among other things, "a banal screensaver." What followed, artnet summarizes; as does a long descent into the twosome’s Twitter/X thread, with an impressive (and at times amusing) pile-on from various denizens of Web3. What’s interesting is that Anadol, from within his tweeted outburst and complaint that Saltz hadn’t learned about him or his work before opining on it (an argument not to be dismissed), asserts that his work is “inclusive,” for “everyone,” and that: “New world is bright, new world is inclusive, new world has no gates!” he adds, concluding: “I’m everyone! You are no one!” The argument underneath this exclamation is alarming, if unintentional: if work is attainable for everyone to consume and love, it must be FOR everyone. 🔹 #Taste, as we know, is hard to argue with. We have arbiters of taste, we have personal tastes. We even have the recent resurgence of #monoculture: the consumption of the same cultural objects and ideas at the same time in the same way, fueled with great zest in 2023 by the phenomena of the Taylor Swift and Beyoncé tours. Taste can be connective and community-building into creating trends, it can also result in…verbal bloodshed. 🔹 #Inclusivity, on the other hand, is aimed at platforming more voices - and therefore…more tastes - within spaces, such as museums. It’s multiplicity, not plurality. At the same time as Anadol’s installation, MoMA exhibited Meret Oppenheim, O’Keefe, Kelly, and, yes, Guillermo del Toro’s puppets from "Pinocchio". Equally, at Fotografiska Museum International museums we may display an exhibition about Pets or Hip-Hop, alongside László Moholy-Nagy or Tony Gum. Or, for that matter, Refik Anadol. Does this mean institutions in the XXI cent have shifted away from being arbiters of taste? In a way, yes. And, I would argue - at large, to the detriment of neither Saltz nor Anadol. Through curatorial inclusivity in cultural institutions, more people see more things. Things they know they like. Things they know they don’t like. And, most excitingly: things they don’t know they might like. Anadol is not for everyone. Neither is Oppenheim. And that’s kind of the point.
