Where would you rather be?
When she left a curating position at a museum, Alyson Stanfield quickly discovered that artists would rather be in the studio than out promoting their work. However, she contends that artists are really the most qualified people to share their art with the world. With that in mind, she wrote I'd Rather Be in the Studio to help us out.
I've bought the book and read parts of it (during breaks from the studio). Alyson has packed this helpful guide with step-by-step suggestions for writing artists statements, press releases, and newsletters among other things. It's easy to read, easy to use, and offers professional advice for your promotional efforts. AND, best of all, Alyson will be here, on my blog next week to answer a question I've posed about art cooperatives.
Sounds great!
