Today we made a tour in the Deak- Oktogon- Kiraly utca and visited several galleries.
All what I saw, made me think that we have too many galleries, too much art and too high prices for it :)
Well, this is life we live in...
It was interesting to see galleries as 'closet' rooms, in which you can even do some sports, play ping-pong for example, and also see big galleries, in which curators will want to explain (with a very sharp British accent :))why all the pictures were arranged exactly in that way.. funny differences..
The other curious things we discovered, is that the most of the galleries are sharing their profits 50-50 with the artist..that's a bit not fair I would say, but at the same time, fair enough to survive (in the gallery case).
Another thing that i noticed (already not the first time) is that all this ARTnetworks are build on trust and contacts and it is very important for an Artist, to be promoted by a gallery; in other cases, that might be very difficult.
So, Good news for us - Artists will always need Art Managers :))
