I just had an invite on Linked in from Samir Ceric. He runs Debut Contemporary – a service for artists from ‘as little as £45 per week’! He is apparently a ‘kingmaker’ and part of ‘Fashion’s new godparents’.
So I looked it up.
Wow. This seems like a cynical kind of business. I have no doubt it is genuine in his eyes, but it seems to leap on the fear of artists that they need to be ‘business savvy’ and know the right people and secrets of the London art world to suceed.Their exhibition and mentoring service may be awesome, but I remain unconvinced and will be steering well clear. Just sayin.
