Art financing is weird, any tips? My gallery, and other successful artists have suggested pre-selling the first edition of the for the production budget.
This would mean I’m then exhibiting and passing along the entirety of the proceeds to the financier, which I’m fine with.
Thoughts?
what does you being an ashkenazi jew have to do with anything at all? fuck off idiot
> Be an artist
> Expect to be handed free money

How about you work in a real job, then follow your worthless passion.
Anyone can be an artist, it doesn't take skill. It's fucking useless.

You should know exacetly what you do.
I’m a partner in a few business, I do strategy work. If you’re not into art as a commodity that’s fine, but the scales of this social mechanism are tipped in my favor so long as I can finance it.
That part was bait, homie.
Yep. Everything is taken care of beyond the initial cost. Exhibitions, publicity, access to a client pool, all of it.
ok, whats the point of this thread?
Hoping to engage the business focused community in a discussion around this niche of financing.
Specifically looking for tips, and to potentially work through any criticism in a safe space.
you got that wrong, Jow Forums is the crypto board. Nobody here has anything to do with real business stuff.
Ugh, I was afraid that was the case - care to direct me somewhere else? Would appreciate it.
why would trolls give you tips on how to run your business?
sounds like you already got it all working fine.
Seems like a lot of money to give to an artist. Do you have a portfolio ?
I mean, it’s a really specific area to finance in, I could always use new connections - and I wouldn’t imagine that everyone in this community are trolls.
maybe reddit or something, heard they have such subreddits about real life business stuff, can‘t really provide a link tho because I never hang out there but I know it exists.
40k for piece
80k for exhibit promo, etc.
is this correct? looking for breakdown on profit from selling first edition, other costs. not enough info
> Need 120k to make art
Unironically kill yourself
>sell 1 piece
>use profit to fund 2-3 pieces
>sell 3 pieces
>use profit to fund 6-9 pieces
why come you cant do this.
120k total goes into the production of the work. About 70% is materials. Which means that it’s liquid in a worst case scenario.
There’s a standard 300% markup on all of the work.
In terms of marketing, I’ve run very effective wildposting campaigns in LA for other business and will likely utilize some of that. I also have a few pending interviews on large platforms. The gallery for the first release has an average opening turnout of 500-1000k people. I have grown an Instagram page in a related niche organically to just under 10k followers.
it's another i'm a kike thread. stop posting this you fucken oven dodger. worse than a fucken roastie.
Because he's an autistic sperg and should be gassed.
This is the same artist scammer but with a weird jewish twist, isnt it.
How long have you been posting these threads, user?
4 months?
Longer?
When will you stop?
Different impact releasing a pieces piecemeal versus as a group. Counts out the ability to exhibit, which is integral in creating the psychological environment that creates value.
Thumbs up on the healthy skepticism but I’m not a scammer.
Certainly. I’d love to send a cv if you’re interested. The throwaway email for Jow Forums is [email protected]
seems like you know what you're doing. not sure i understand the context of the thread
I know how to make the work, I know how to market it, I know how to activate the social mechanism that uplifts art.
Not sure I know how to do this fundraising - it’s very specific and it’s been dragging a bit.
how is it specific? know peple with money, ask them to invest. what's to know?
How do you get into this?
Hey, I’d love to send you the deck with details but my mobile is not letting my sign into my email.
If you shoot me a message I’d love to get it to you when I’m in front of my computer.
Email is here:
I work with a lot of artists. I’ve made a lot of connections that way.
I also just have a propensity for it. I do strategy and marketing work, and whether or not we want to accept it, it’s necessary for an artist to be thinking about.
I don't blame you
would you imagine it's easier to get a foot in the door in art than in tech? or the other way around?
Investors often want equity in a model, not in a project. It also relies on shared trust of the sociocultural relevance and aesthetic power of the work. These are complex considerations that not everyone is naturally geared towards.
In that way it’s pretty specific.
Definitely the other way around. Tech is far easier to enter in terms of fundraising, the structures for driving popularity are more straightforward and universally understood.
You are a scammer and a notorious samefagger
I’m in and out of the house, my phone hops on an off WiFi. Still not a scammer.
>Investors often want equity in a model, not in a project.

yes, i agree. i'm still not sure what tips you're looking for. you know what you're doing. the only recommendation i have is to focus on people who may be interested in investing because they agree with the artist's vision or whatever else and not necessarily in the outcome. true believers, similar to crypto investors. seems like an easier sell to me.
>You: “This guy doesn’t behave the exact same way as me, NOT TO BE TRUSTED”
This is actually brilliant advice. I had been focused on pitching the economics and talking about art as if it’s a marketing direction. Just switched up my deck to reflect this POV though.
Just stop. Get a job and stop all of this.
I have a job, if you participated in my threads rather than attempting to derail them like an idiot, you would: 1. Already know that, and 2. Be contributing to this community instead of pushing against it.
I’m having a real discussion.
Oh look, I’m samefagging!
"go fucking do it then"
not everyone can be an artist, it takes vision
bretty obvious desu. art people are all feels, the money is gravy but not the reason why they're in it.
Right, but I need money people too.
Appreciate you.
true. go find some people with money who like your vision and make friends.
Yeah, I guess this just a rinse and repeat of the way I secured the first third of the capital then huh?
i guess so, i'll take your word for it
Ha! Right. Thanks for your time, btw.
fuck of jew
I’m atheist.
Hope all you Americans are enjoying the 4th. Would love to continue this thread if anyone’s on.
Art bump
Bling bump
Pretty empty this evening
