Working with Commercial Galleries
A talk by gallerist Ceri Hand
11th December 2013
Opening up some of the mechanics of the art world gallerist Ceri Hand discussed the relationships between artists and commercial galleries. Ceri was refreshingly honest in discussing possibilities for regulation in commercial galleries and some of the more covert practices within the industry, such as discounting.
Initially trained as an artist, Ceri Hand draws on over twenty years in the art world. She has previously acted as Director of Metal (Liverpool), Director of Exhibitions, FACT (Liverpool, where she was a contributing curator to Liverpool Biennial in 2004 and 2006), Deputy Director of Grized...ale Arts, Cumbria and Director of Make, London. Ceri Hand Gallery was founded in Liverpool in 2008 and relocated to London in 2012. The gallery has a special focus on conceptual and performance art, producing and exhibiting major new works on and offsite, including publications, editions and multiples. Fostering relationships between gallery artists and their work provides a strong peer support for artist's development and engages curators and collectors. The gallery has actively contributed to developing a regional market in the UK through local, national and international activity and a challenging programme of exhibitions and education events.
