Next question then . Lets say I am the designer of the product (kit). I cut the parts, assemble the "kit" and do all the work to get to the finished product. Does this…"

I was just thinking...it would be a good idea if Art Fair Insiders had a tab designated to Art Fairs ratings. This way everyone could get educated on what fairs are geared towards artand which ones…Continue

I have a passion for painting and in the same time I enjoy designing and making jewelry. A friend suggested not to apply for both if I want to get accepted in any show. She thinks it is considered…Continue

"I am getting the since that HRI is misrepresenting their work, FRAUD. Having an individual showing up and taking credit for doing the work. Is it acceptable if the "artist at the show" is doing some part of the work. Is the issue the fact…"

"Art... I am sure you see HRI at many shows as do all of us. Rarely the same "artist" (if I may call them that) is selling the product. I look at them the same way I look at the stone birds and Mistura watches.

"I agree nothing exist until you print the photo. Printing a photo in itself is not reproduction. With that said how is "multiple originals" not reproduction when you do more than 1 print of the same photo. 2 or more identical copies…"
Larry Berman replied to Cornelia Haymes's discussion How would you like to have the option of rating ART Fairs?
"Depends on the nuances of your medium. Photography is not a medium of reproductions, it's multiple originals because nothing exists until it's printed.When I meant competition, I meant to get into the show, not once you're in and…"

"Not defending. Simply wanted to know what the art community felt about HRI and others like them. I have no association with them and knew nothing about them. I see them in Bemidji yearly, I liked the piece and bought 1. They have been near us the…"

"I don't understand your post.You are a wood worker who, I assume, creates the work that you sell. Why are you defending a direct competitor in your medium who sends reps to shows? Do you get your work from them? And why post to a two year old…"
Art Kliniske replied to Cornelia Haymes's discussion How would you like to have the option of rating ART Fairs?
"Thanks Larry.
If I understand the painter comment. It is OK with the art vendors to have reproduced paintings if allowed. The buyer would also be aware that they are reproduced/prints. Miss representation is the issue.
With that is it wrong to…"

tom gross said… - I'm sort of new to the site also. I know that under the "members" header there is a "groups" link - There you will find different mediums to get involved in. I have seen some other Illinois artists on the site - not really sure how many, but I think that most don't post on the map. You may also try to get involved with the Chicago Artists Coalition or so other group in your area.
As for products I use and subjects - I've developed a technique using Golden's Glazing Liquid (gloss) and a variety of lesser quality pigments to paint in a series of layers giving the acrylic paintings a great deal of depth. I try not to venture too far from my main topic of cityscapes.

- Stay away from anything that the Chicago Special Events people are doing - They make money and really don't care about you at all - Over a grand to do the show on Wells Street, once all expenses where in.
I do get a lot of e-mail about events that are put on by Alderman Rey Colon (reycolon.org) most are down on Division Street area ( Sort of artsy - had a show at the Black Walnut Gallery there)
Getting the booth shot would be easier if you did a smaller show or two first - the shows that request a booth shot are ussually a little mire competative that the ones that don't.
The wb site could go on the back burners - I find it is a good way for people to contact you after they met you at a show - but hords of people aren't out there seaching the web for art to buy!
Good Luck!!

- Yes I'm a down-stater, but that puts me in a good position as I'm four hours from lots of major markets ( Chicago/St Louis/Indianapolis/Des Moines/Madison). You need to post some images of your work!
I'll be in Elmhurst May 2nd and 3rd - don't know what booth yet - If your not doing anything come check out the show!
