Wonderful information and great tips! I’ve exhibited my paintings for over 20 years and am now, interesting in exhibiting my photographs. I found a printer by word of mouth and I have questions about small things like do I sign my photographs (front or back), do I print one of each photograph or is it smarter to print more for the show as loose work? If I print more, should I add ’3 of 50′ (for example) on the back of the photographs or on the mats, and finally, should I also display loose work at the show? Thanks in advance! I found this article so helpful and have recommended it to friends.

These are very good tips and the author is right on the money. Tip number 5 is extremely important and rather difficult to accomplish. Choosing your best works is like choosing favorites among your children. I will share the advise that my curator gave me just a few weeks ago: STOP using your mind and go with your GUT. It also helps to start with a concept – this way you can choose pieces that are cohesive and aligned with your concept. Finally, it is also very true that the hardest thing of all is to get a gallery to support a new artist. In my case, what worked was persistence and a sales background. My advise is to find your unique proposition and “sell” yourself using this. Curators need to know what you are about and you need to be able to express this with conviction.

Hiya, I am really glad I’ve found this info. Nowadays bloggers publish just about gossip and internet stuff and this is actually irritating. A good site with exciting content, that’s what I need. Thank you for making this web site, and I will be visiting again. Do you do newsletters? I Can’t find it.

Dear Ms Newton
I just came across your article by looking for some tips to hold a photographic presentation for the first time. It sounds interesting. I discovered the joy of photography only recently when I go for walks in my country Malta.

thanks
