How to Run Your Fine Art Gallery Successfully?

 

 

Running an art gallery in increasing global recession is very challenging, and requires a set of unique strategies for proper growth.

 

Though, these strategies are not appropriate to the average small consumer-based business, but one should apply these if highly conscious to his business. Since art spending is unrestricted income, an economic downtown can hit dealers, galleries as well as the artists hard.

 

 

 

 

Here are some suggestions, with the help of which you and your Fine art gallery can climb out of the recession. These are actually the top recession-proof strategies for perfect art galleries:

 

Cut Unnecessary Expenses: When you determine that your gallery is running from tough times, you should spend less.

 

 

Try to lessen spend by cutting out unnecessary expenses and lower your overhead. Reorganise the structure of your printing, advertising, shipping, and daily costs. For example, cut the framing costs by having artists frame their own work.Deal in Old Masters: If you deal on modern and contemporary arts you need to be more active and updated as these based on upcoming trends which can be unstable at times, so it is better to deal in old Master paintings.

 

 

One of the world famous art dealers recommends dealing in old Master paintings. He says, "Old Masters, while not enjoying the periods of dramatic growth evident in many other fields, also do not suffer the downturns in the same way. During recent periods of recession the perceived reliability of the Old Master field has led many collectors in other areas to redirect their interest in this direction."Broad Your Horizons: Running a fine art gallery with the traditional methods is not relevant in nowadays economic climate.

 

 

In this regard a gallery founder says, "Now, following the change in the global economies, the arts industry is forced to innovate and provide creative solutions for creating sustainability in the market, in production, in museum programming, in collections etc."

 

Further she advises that a gallery cannot be "merely sustained by investment and short-term financial gains, but needs to be sustained by patronage and long-term investment in the fostering of a cultural community." Explaining about her own art organisation, she says, "We provide graphic design and art advisory services. We work with artists, collectors and institutions to facilitate acquisitions, exhibitions, art programs, and publications. Our services include bespoke art experiences, collection management, exhibition organization, art publications and public art initiatives.
