Living Artists
Advertising in the 15th Edition
Deadline extended to September
30, 2006
Finding the right market for your artwork is an ongoing process. Our
biannual directory is reviewed by thousands of qualified art professionals,
showcasing your work to new markets. This professionally
produced directory has become their ultimate channel to discovering emerging
artists from all over the country (and world). Living Artists,
an exhibition in a book, has a controlled, complimentary circulation to
7,000 art world professionals.
A variety of traditional, contemporary and avant-garde artwork fills
the pages of each biannual edition. Barnes & Noble, Borders and other
major book retailers carry this directory in the popular magazine section
of their store for several months, giving artists exposure to even more
private collectors and art enthusiasts.
Our 15th edition will be similar to the 8x10" size of the 14th
edition. Exhibition space is available in full-, double- or quarter-page
sizes. Samples
of possible layouts are displayed below. A quarter-page ad displays a reproduction
of artwork accompanied by name, address, email and web site.
Work will be reproduced in high-quality four-color. Prospective buyers
contact artists directly. Two-thirds of our artists are repeat advertisers;
some have been in the directory all of the past 14 issues! Books are printed
in the Orient and arrive in U.S. in May 2007.
ELIGIBILITY
All artwork must be the original work of the artist indicated on application
