Episode Art Fairs with Sarah Birtles
In this episode I speaks with Sarah Birtles, an art dealer and the founder of Sarah Birtles Art and Advice. With over a decade of experience in commercial and public galleries, Sarah has built a business that connects individuals and businesses with original artworks through art fairs, online sales, and in-home consultations.
Sarah shares her insights into the different tiers of art fairs in Australia, the risks and rewards of participating in them, and how she selects which artists and artworks to bring to different locations. She also discusses how collectors engage with her artists and provides valuable advice for artists considering selling their work at an art fair.
Sarah shares her thoughts on maintaining confidence, avoiding common pitfalls, and presenting artwork effectively. We also discuss the role of galleries and dealers at fairs, the etiquette for artists approaching them, and how the art fair industry is evolving in Australia and New Zealand.
