Re: Baldessari

After posting Baldessari's piece that made me laugh out loud the first time I saw it at LACMA, I was reminded from a visit to Todd Walker's excellent Gallery Hopper of ArtCareer.net's 100 Must-See Art Blogs list and happened upon Selling Art blog. While there, I found the folowing gem relating to the Bladessari I posted:

You want to market a body of work, not a single piece. Try working on a series, rather than a single piece, so you can address a number of different issues and a number of different pieces can be available for collectors.

I could rant now, but I'll spare you all.

And an unrelated one that was nice to rememeber:

You have come a long way, and have a long way to go. Focus on what and who you are, and not on what you’re not.
