Getting a gallery is tough. The Australian art market is not so big, and we have no shortage of artists worthy of representation. What that means is that gallery stables are generally full, and getting through the door is by no means an easy feat.
ArtsHub wants to make that process as easy, and as professional as possible, so we have armed you with nine questions that you need to ask. Remember, you have power in this conversation also – you are there because they are interested in you, and you can be guaranteed they have done their research on you.
