I have been bad and not posted in a while, Twitter has grab my attention away but I must stay focus because this is our way of keeping everyone informed.
So what has been happening in my world of Revolving Gallery, the easiest answer to that is lots. Going back a few weeks we had the Artist studio visit that Tarot has been blogging about so here is my take. I am really proud of us as a Gallery taking the time to do studio visit, they benefit us and the artists and all the information we gain so we can pass it on, I feel it's a dying tradition. This good practice relate to why I see myself more as a Gallerist than a dealer. Gallerist is a relatively recent term coined on the New York art market and relates to people who don't just buy and sell work but really invest in the Artist, supporting there career and at the same time works closely with collectors to equally nurture them. It is a much more holistic approach to working with art in a commercial field and I like to hold these ideals.
So as a collector (or potential collector) we welcome you to come talk to us, so we can get to know you and hopefully help you build a collection that you love and can be proud of. The studio visit plays a vital role in this.
Here is an article with more information on the term: http://www.nytimes.com/2005/12/24/arts/20051224gallerist.html?_r=1
