Art Collectors – What do they really want?
You are a hunter. You didn’t know it, but you are. As an artist you are hunting elusive and rare game called the ‘Art Collector’. Mostly solitary creatures, roaming the plains of the art gallery establishment they need very tasty bait if you want them to come out of hiding, cheque books in hand.
If you manage to snag enough of these collectors with your tasty wares then there is the potential for more of them to head your way, demanding all the morsels you can feed them. But, as an artist, do you have enough fresh carcasses in the cupboard?
Is your Artworld in Recession?
So, what do we do now? Just sit twiddling our creative fingers? Or do we get on and do ‘something’ while we’re waiting for the affluent people to feel affluent again?
Okay, enough already! Everybody has now heard that we’re in recession and the media seem to bang on about it at every possible opportunity.
