Description
Should artists go to the fairs? Or should we just leave it to the galleries and collectors? Is it too soul-crushing, or are there benefits? The hilarious Jennifer Coates is back to cohost with me this week (yay!) and I took the opportunity to grill her about her recent experience as an artist visiting "Untitled", a major art fair in Miami. Her gallery High Noon was presenting her work there as a solo booth and she went full immersion for 4 days. I went into the episode with a decided "nope" as my answer, but Jennifer kind of brought me around by bringing up some excellent points and ways to reframe one's goals. We cover how to approach gallery booths, recount some outrageous art fair fashion and discuss how to manage all your squeamish feelings while at the fair. You don't want to miss!
