Sales
1 remark I would make is that this exhibition has NOT marketed as numerous as I believe it could and should really have carried out.
I assume there might be three explanations for this
- the Edition dimensions is not observed on the label up coming to the print – and I never ever ever get a unframed print with out figuring out what the version measurement is (The details is offered – it truly is just not there to seize the second when any individual is interested!)
- I have not noticed a lot of internet marketing for the exhibition – and there are incredibly couple social media posts about it.
- which is in section down to artists not building the energy to market place their perform both! Gail Brodholt’s write-up is an isolated contribution!
Quite pleased that my linocut ‘Storm Clouds In excess of Whitehall’ is part of the International Original Print Exhibition at @BanksideGallery. Open up each working day (until 2nd Oct) with a great array of artists prints. No cost entry and appropriate following to Tate Modern day!#printexhibition #linocut pic.twitter.com/BRUpSWMkuQ
