Jo Verrent talks about how artists are commissioned.
Being commissioned to make an artwork can give time, money, recognition and validation. However, getting any commission is the start of the process and not the end.
We take a look at some of the practical considerations and complications that may arise during this process, including:
- managing stakeholders
- artists’ rights
- managing your finances and possible effects on benefits
- reading and understanding contracts
- what you can do if your ideas or plans change
The session is designed to help you focus on creating your new work and ensuring your own wellbeing.
