What to do if galleries won't accept your paintings


Recommended Posts

Many artists, even those with a name, are faced with the fact that galleries refuse to accept their paintings.What to do in this case?You have to understand that galleries prefer to deal with a “off the shelf” product that will sell well and are not very inclined to promote unknown artists.Therefore, their expectations must be met.The career of an artist is a gradual ascent.I advise you to become famous at the regional level in order to then step by step closer to the famous galleries.

There are several ways to achieve this goal.Organize collective exhibitions, take part in competitions.After bringing together a group of like-minded people, arrange exhibitions of your work in non-traditional places.These can be theaters, concert halls, restaurants, hotels, business centers, beauty salons and even private homes.Set up an exhibition in any public place with a large audience.Do not hesitate to advertise your creativity, come up with bright unusual ways of presentation, attract the attention of television, create your groups on social networks.I guarantee you will have admirers soon.Use the slightest chance to make useful connections with a wide variety of people.You can never know in advance which of them may be of service to you in the future.

Build your resume by recording each event that adds up to your track record.A solid resume will work for you; sooner or later it will attract the attention of gallery owners.Very soon you will feel that you are ready for a personal exhibition.Again, I advise you not to immediately try to get into a famous gallery or rent an expensive exhibition hall at your own expense.

Try to negotiate with a local cultural center or library, where enthusiasts of their business very often work, and they will gladly meet you halfway and help you organize an exhibition for free.One solo exhibition is quoted in the art world much higher than participation in several collective exhibitions.

When offering cooperation to a specific gallery, I advise you to first study the main areas of its work and contact where your paintings fit in style.Change the way you communicate with the gallery.Do not focus on how the gallery can be useful to you.Emphasize how your paintings can be of interest to the gallery.Convince with facts, don't appeal to emotions.Take your time to showcase all your paintings.Tell us what you are currently working on.Be open to personal contact.And then your work will surely arouse professional interest.
