(Services)

Artist Agency is an active practice. We give artists greater agency to make decisions in support of their careers by providing them with the resources they need to execute them. We work with artists both independently and alongside galleries and institutions, building on existing artworld models, to fill the gaps where support is needed.

(1)

Ride or die

Our most robust level of support for artists managing large-scale projects with long-term benchmarks and budgets.

The work is “Front-of-House,” advocating on behalf of the artist, serving as the artist’s agent to ensure the scope of projects is defined, and goals are met. You guide the creative decisions while we make sure the T’s are crossed and the I’s are dotted.

Accountability Partner

Our most popular level of support for artists managing active projects, commissions, and acquisitions.

The work is both big-picture guidance and real-time, project-focused consulting and advisory services, providing “Back-of-House” management and care for an artist's practice and career. The artist stays fully in the driver's seat, while Artist Agency is the back-seat driver you’ve always wanted. Using an evaluation matrix, we work with you to develop strategies to achieve the best outcomes for you and your practice.

We love long-term collaboration, and understand that support can be project-driven. With that said, we recommend our work together take place over a minimum of three months. At the end of our time together, you will walk away with a clearer vision of how you want to invest in your creative process and support your work administratively so you have more time and energy to spend creating.

Service fees range from a sliding-scale retainer to commissions on projects and acquisitions to flat-rate one-off meetings (or a combination of all the above). Schedule a free 30-minute meeting, and let’s see what makes the most sense for you.

The business of art, on the artist's side.
