art show representation

Learn some details about upcoming shows.

Through our Art Show Division, Artisan Direct offers its artists the opportunity to participate in National Art Fairs without the hassle for them to be doing it on their own. It is our belief that all artisans greatly benefit from the national exposure provided by participating in Art Shows as another important venue to sell their work. This Division manages all aspects of each show, including: promotions, exhibition and sales of an artist’s work, handling all art show related functions, except for the transport of the art to and from the show. Additionally, Artisan Direct works with each artist in choosing art, advising and coaching them every step of the way for them to get the greatest benefit from their participation. Artisan Direct offers its Art Show Production involvement to all Artisan Direct artists affliliated and in good standing with the Company. We then market our Art Show participation to all of the galleries and art resources affiliated with the Company for them to help promote our participation as well.

    We are currently confirmed to participate at these events:
  • Artexpo New York, March, 2012
  • Toronto Affordable Art Fair, April, 2012
  • Red Dot New York, May, 2012
  • Artmarket Hamptons, July, 2012
  • Affordable Art Fair, September, 2012
  • Red Dot Miami, December, 2012

Why Exhibit?

    Following are just a few of the top benefits an artist receives through their participation in Art Fairs:
  • The opportunity to exhibit your original art at nationally-recognized prestigious art shows and fairs. By bringing your art to a targeted audience of art buyers, every artist comes that much closer to making better sales.
  • To demonstrate your commitment about being an artist
  • To participate in a world class show attracting the serious attention of a targeted and equally committed audience of art galleries, collectors, critics, consultants, other related art resources, media interest and art venues around the world.
  • To add this impressive venue to your existing resume
  • To have the opportunity of exposing your art to an important community of art lovers and buyers.
  • To have the opportunity of networking with other artists and galleries in the art community and making valuable new contacts.
  • To have the opportunity of generating significant and multiple art sales.
  • Your participation is at a price significantly less than an independent artist would pay to show in the same Fair.
  • All sales, marketing and administrative tasks are handled by Artisan Direct freeing you from all the details involved.
    Art Show participation for any of these shows is approximately $1800—$2500 per show, for which you will receive the following benefits:
  • Main floor participation with optimal location at a high-end art show
  • Sales, marketing and administrative tasks handled by Artisan Direct personnel
  • Full handling of all the logistics of your appearance at the show
  • Support in choosing, preparing and shipping your work to the show.
  • Advice in getting the most benefit from your participation in each show
  • While you are encouraged to attend the show if you can, your attendance is optional as we will be there to exhibit, promote and sell your work in your absence.
