DESCRIPTION:Artists, do you wish you better understood how the art marketplace works? How does something get from your studio, into a gallery, into collector’s hands, or to auction… while you are still alive? Mary Longe studied in London at Sotheby’s Institute of Art, learning the answers. This is not a magic bullet, nor is it a how-to marketing session. With this session, you will understand the art marketplace, and. what it takes and where to put your efforts. Using real life examples of artists who started working at different points in their lives, you’ll see that it's never too late and it’s never too early, either… The point is to be intentional right from the time you decide you want to be taken seriously. This session provides actionable recommendations and resources. Longe warns, “I am not an expert, more of an artist-explorer bringing back finds to share.”\n<div class="eds-l-mar-vert-6 eds-l-sm-mar-vert-4 eds-text-bm structured-content-rich-text">\n<div class="eds-text--left">\n\nMary Longe is an artist and the former Executive Director of Plein Air Painters Chicago.
