AN AMAZING OPPORTUNITY TO OFFSET OUR MOST CHALLENGING MARKET !
Rachel
and I are launching the gallery rental and leasing program - this is
BIG - we are not in competition with anyone, but in expansion. The need is there, the opportunity presents itself as a "given" and we are including a wide range of artists from the West to the East Coast and beyond. We need to work together, be a team,
in our ever-changing, challenging economy and come up with new ideas
and ways to promote art....YOUR ART.....SO, that is why we are creating
a rental gallery as well as a lease with option to buy gallery. it
would be an advantage to EVERY one of you to participate, but I need
your OK, and images of the work that you would like to be included in
the "inventory", as well as artist's statement AND for those of you who
can come with an example/sample of your work....PERFECT! Looking
forward to hearing back. If you are interested in participating, please send us three digital images, website link, artist's statement and resume to rachel@marnimuirgallery.com and a copy to marnimuir@comcast.net Onward and Upward, Marni rachel@marnimuir.com or marnimuir@comcast.net
STAGE RIGHT NOW ~THE ART OF STAGING AND THE STAGING OF ART
Within the next month STAGE RIGHT NOW will be partnering with MARNI
MUIR GALLERY to give the staging and realty communities access to the
work of many local area artists while preparing homes for sale.
While working for the last 3 years in the Seattle staging industry
it became clear that high quality original artwork was almost out of
reach to purchase as an inventory asset and difficult to maintain and
store when we did make an expensive investment.
Marni Muir, along with her associate, Rachel Marez of MARNI MUIR
GALLERY in Pioneer Square and STAGE RIGHT NOW are offering the Staging
community and artists an innovative option, which will give access to
an enormous amount of art, sculpture and mixed media pieces from a
stable of local artists at a monthly rental fee. Along with this will
come the opportunity to sell the artwork, to those who get to view it
in the home, for a percentage of its value.
We will be hosting an exhibition at the gallery May 19th from 6 to
9pm to let you see what wonderful things will be at your fingertips to
rent, with available images in hard copy and Internet to assist you in
selection while on site.
We all know art can absolutely make a home memorable and visibly
impact a buyer in a most positive way. We are planning to give you that
option in every home you stage at little cost plus a potential profit.
We also love the opportunity to showcase local talent and benefit the
Seattle economy.
So instead of whining about the lack of good original art, let us wine you with the abundance of our local resources!
This is a way to promote
your art, sell your art, and get additional exposure...[pretty much a
win/win situation for everyone... Hope to hear from you!
