From Booklist: Gallery owner and art critic Barnes is
refreshingly free of pretension and preciousness in this let's-get-real
guide for students and artists hoping to sell their work. Much
as she understands the spiritual and aesthetic forces that motivate
artists, she sticks to practical matters. Barnes offers plenty
of sane and sensible guidelines for preparing for studio visits,
evaluating agreements with galleries, selecting work for shows,
and helping with installation and promotion.
The Art of Displaying Art takes the mystery out of successful
exhibition design. It is an essential guide for gallery and
museum personnel. Pressivate collectors who own oils, graphics,
drawings, and photographs will find this volume a valuable handbook
for hanging art in their homes and offices.
Although geared for the art business professional, this book
is also of interest to artists who do not participate in the
gallery system. Learn how to sell art effectively with proven
techniques used by top art dealers.
