4 Must-Know Tools for Artists, Collectors & Galleries - CAI

[@contemporaryartissue]

I had no idea Perrier was slowly but surely creeping up on me while recording, such a goofball 😂 Wishing you all a Merry Christmas!

[@petrastefankovaart]

I am using Artfacts for a long time already and I am always excited to reveal new ranking after adding new exhibitions to my profile. I regularly watch your advice, although some local market specifics do not allow me to follow it entirely - such as a "NO" to adding an e-shop on the artist portfolio web site.... but in general I am grateful for your inspiration.

[@contemporaryartissue]

Hi Petra, that's wonderful. Thank you for watching and for your thoughtful comment. Wishing you all the best! Julien

I like your dog! Loving a dog is therapeutic.

[@contemporaryartissue]

She is the best! Dogs are the best!

[@filippobincoletto2503]

That's a good Christmas Gift for myself and a good Merry Christmas to you

[@contemporaryartissue]

Excellent, enjoy! Thank you so much for tuning in!

[@kellyoneal2217]

Perrier is such a great element of your channel.

Artifacts: I don’t get it because I was part of some big exhibitions in museums which had a lot of press with my name mentioned, but non of these ever made it into artfacts. They have only listed one exhibition of mine, which took place in a smaller project space. Can you explain how this works?

[@NateBear]

Thanks!

[@contemporaryartissue]

The pleasure is all mine! Big thanks to you; I really appreciate it!

If you' look closely you can see the dog is listening. Like any a good student of Art should !

Absolutely! She's the best! Thank you for tuning in; greetings from us both. Julien & Perrier

These all seem really great sites and I've bookmarked all of them. But it seems these are more useful and appropriate for artists who have enough resources to pursue the western/global art scene. I come from a country that's not really considered a major hub for fine art.

[@contemporaryartissue]

Hi there, you are absolutely right. But must tools are free or very cheap. Only Artfacts is rather expensive if you go for a paid subscription, but even with a free account it can be a tremendous resource.

I signed up for artenda but find its actually not usefull for people living in Australia. There are quite a few residencies and competitions that I know of and none of them are on their site, im not quite sure why. I have emailed them about the ones that I know of, but am a bit disappointed with the infos for Tasmanian and Australian artist.

[@contemporaryartissue]

Hi Aleksandra, thank you for your comment. Artenda does filter the art contests a lot. Australia has a lot of galleries and competitions that are "living on an island", so to speak. I advise you when applying for art contests or simply working on your network as an artist, to be aware not to get stuck in such an island. There has been a very important study on the mobility of art careers that explains this very thoroughly. I'll share it here for your interest: www.magnusresch.com/wp-content/uploads/2018/11/Quantifying-Reputation-and-Success-in-Art-Science-Paper-Magnus-Resch.pdf Nevertheless, thank you for tuning in once more and good luck!

[@aleksandramirjanacrossan4442]

@@contemporaryartissue thanks! Good input! I am also looking outside of Australia, I just think it’s a shame that they don’t seem to include it as it would be helpful too😊

Why is Berlin missing on the Artforum? Because it would be St. Agnes and that‘s it?

[@contemporaryartissue]

Berlin is not missing on Artforum; you can even select specific areas in Berlin: www.artforum.com/artguide/place/berlin?category=must+see Thank you for tuning in!

[@federicostocco2832]

Hi, what do you think about having a stage name? My name is Federico Stocco and my stage name is xenofede. I’m studying visual arts in venice, and your videos are extremely important.

[@ben-km6uu]

Use your real name it makes you/your work easier to connect with than just a stage name. Works well in entertainment and showmanship but visual arts is different, and only very few can pull of stage name and that has to tie in with their work (Banksy being anonymous, Futura 2000 coming from grafitti culture etc.)

[@contemporaryartissue]

Hi Federico, thank you for tuning in and for tuning. Ben answered your question well. Having a stage name includes some risks-you risk there will be confusion, some might think its not professional, and others will find it more difficult to find you online.

[@federicostocco2832]

@@contemporaryartissue thank you so much

[@fdstudio4345]

@@contemporaryartissue Hello, your content is supreme ! we have what is being called here a "stage name" but would rather call it a pseudonym . It is @Duealberi and yes it has always been a doubt if it was right or wrong to go in this direction. So far it worked, but it's alwats relative. It's from a project that started of combined artwork of 2 artists since more than 10 years. You never stop learning though. It is always interesting to see how this may affect collectors.

[@chrisedwick]

dear artist, as regards "artfacts" please remember that being an artist is to live in a realm of freedom that has absolutely nothing whatsoever to do with "rankings"...."up" is the opposite of "down" and "artist" is the opposite of "rankings"....beware c.a.i. always remember they are the "art-market" which of course, has nothing to do with the making of art and the nature of being an artist...

Why no art in your presentation

[@dees9502]

As a collector you have to know WHAT YOU LIKE, it what artist is doing well. Otherwise you aren’t a collector, you’re just contributing to the phony art market

[@contemporaryartissue]

Absolutely, I agree! Thank you for tuning in

What a lot of B S

[@robot8181]

Why? Genuinely interested to know. This is the first CAI video I’ve ever seen.

[@molunz4598]

Perhaps CAI can upgrade your video and lighting production, consistent 💩quality. Hard to take any of this serious, are you on iPhone 4?

[@mfossoli]

Underwhelming.

[@anc8927]

what a unkind

[@FialaStudio]

Why do you include your quite impatient doggie clearly waiting for your attention? I tend to be watching the dog more than listening to you.

[@contemporaryartissue]

Normally she is having a nap because we also have a walk before recording these. But this time, without me being aware, she was definitely asking something; treats or attention, or probably both!
