Part of The Fine Artist's Guide series, this classic guide provides information about issues relevant to artists today. Consignment is when your property is placed in the hands of another individual or institution but your ownership is retained until the material is sold. This guide shows you how to draft a contract that addresses commission upon sale, stipend, exclusive rights, potential damages, and more. It contains a sample of Form 7 (the Artist-Gallery Contract) and a helpful negotiation checklist.
