Nice article. There are artists incorporating social media experimentation directly into their work, but not many. Check out An Xiao http://www.anxiaostudio.com/

This is something I’ve been thinking a lot about as well. I think you’re absolutely right about how weird it is that the art world isn’t at the forefront of social media. Look at how artists pioneered in the world of video. It was like Youtube 25 years in advance.

I loved the spirit of this article. I think the more people discuss exhibitions, artists or various mediums- it automatically creates a momentum of interest that generates the market in one way or another. I think education is a great way to learn more about a show and even if a particular artist declines to comment that is just as powerful as one who speaks since it is further insight into the mentality of the artist which adds another dimension to the work.
Thanks for the article!

Silvana. Thank you so much for the lovely comment. It means so much to me first that you’ve been reading and secondly that today u took a moment to comment. Thank you very very much. It really does make my day to hear from you in such a way. Thanks for all your great support and friendship.

I’ve been spending a lot of time with some very original and progressive artists who have put me on a path to recognize that the issues they confront everyday have applications in the kind of work I am doing and want to do. Stay tuned for more fun and boundary pushing. And have a great Xmas and holiday season.

I’m not in NY or in the art business, nor am I (momentarily) able to buy art…but that was a very interesting read, questions that I guess I had never asked myself or pondered the answers to. I do know a number of artists, galleries and small businesses though and it is something that I am going to think about more in depth when talking to them. As a matter of fact, I really like the way you think, Mr. Cohen! The possibilities of communicating with Twitter etc, nurturing contacts, doing business and with the goal of becoming successful (isn’t that the point?) weather artist, dealer or just interested individual are endless, rich. Thank you for opening my mind to the possibilities. Btw, watching you grow your business since this summer is fascinating. SVH
