How to Work and Thrive Outside of the Mainstream with Jennifer Gilbert
In this episode of The Artist Business Plan we speak with gallerist, Jennifer Lauren Gilbert, as she offers up some golden advice for artists. Jennifer's gallery features self-taught, disabled, and underrepresented artists. Join us as Jennifer guides us through overcoming obstacles, provides tips on reaching out to galleries, and dealing with rejection, because hey, it happens to everyone. She offers up some golden advice on patience and determination, and reminds us that each voice is unique, and there's room for everyone in the art world.
"Put yourself out there, don’t be afraid to stand your ground, don’t let people take your power."- JLG
Guest: Jennifer Lauren Gilbert is a gallerist and freelance producer and curator. In 2017 she set up the Jennifer Lauren Gallery to champion and exhibit international self-taught, disabled and overlooked artists who create works outside the mainstream art world and art history. Through her work Jennifer hopes to: demystify what is regarded as art and who can be an artist; stimulate audiences; and continue to challenge the stigma surrounding this field of art.
