The artist's roadmap: practical strategies for a career in art
by Delphian
On the shelf? Just pop in.
Being an artist is challenging. Not only are the skills difficult to master, but there is no single route to success: all artistic careers are different. Authored by the founders of Delphian Gallery - an artist-run nomadic gallery and arts platform - this book charts the complex geography of the contemporary art world, revealing what goes on behind the exhibition display and in the curator's office in a compassionately frank discussion of what professional practice means today and the commercial aspects of being an artist.
