Home - Artist Agency

Artist Agency helps working artists manage the business behind the work, from strategy and pricing to contracts, sales and project delivery.

A growing practice brings more than creative opportunity. It brings emails, contracts, budgets, deadlines, pricing questions, client relationships and systems that rarely come with instructions. Artist Agency brings insider art-world experience and practical support to your side of the table, so you can protect your interests, move opportunities forward and build a career that can sustain the work.

Artists stay in control of the work, while Artist Agency helps the career around it function better. Artists Agency works alongside galleries, institutions, and other existing partners, adding capacity where artists need more hands-on business and project support.

(Making art is only part of the job)

You are also expected to negotiate, budget, follow up, keep records, manage relationships and plan what comes next, often inside systems that were never designed to be easy to read. A promising opportunity can still arrive with vague scope, thin budgets, one-sided terms or more labor than anyone named upfront. Artist Agency helps you see the whole picture, decide what is worth pursuing and handle the business without letting it take over the work. Bring the weird contract, the unfinished budget and the email you have rewritten six times.

(SERVICES)

You make the work. We help make the career work. Artist Agency is an artist-side business and career partner for working artists. We help you pursue bookings and commissions, negotiate contracts, price and sell work, manage projects and build the systems behind a practice that can last. Support where the work gets complicated. Get practical help with the decisions, deals, projects and systems that sit behind a working art practice.

Before you say yes, look at the whole opportunity. A good opportunity should do more than sound impressive. Together, we ask: Does it align with your values? Does it support you financially? Does it move your practice forward? The answers shape the deal, the plan or the decision to walk away.
