How to find an art agent/broker?



I would like to find a art agent who displays paintings from his artists in galleries/stores etc. I am prepared to pay the commission as percentage of my sale. I live in South Bay in California.

Where should I look for them? I could not find them in yellow pages or online searches.

It is not easy to find agents. It is much easier to get into galleries. When you get into a gallery and you start selling agents will start knocking.
The thing is agents will not represent you if they can't make money of your art, same with galleries.So you should ask yourself those questions: Is your art sellable? Is it made in professional manner? Do you have a large body of paintings that have similar content and show progression? Do you have a certain style that people will recognize you by?
Those are just a few question that anybody that will want to represent you will ask themselves. So if you feel strong about your work go to galleries and submit your work. Source(s): http://www.piotrart.com
I don't know where you can find an agent. I am an artist myself and what I did find was a website artistika.ca that helps up-and-coming artists, like myself promote and sell my work. So far, it has worked very well. Good luck!
Hi Sue,

I cannot give you a good answer on that but I'll give you an advice.
Fortunately, most people in this world are still well intended. But there are many who aren't, especially when there's money involved.
HAVE your agreements WRITTEN on paper and signed (check if the signature is legitimate).
Have a physical adress and ask for the phone - check with the phone company if they match (name included).
Ask for references.
If the start arguing that you're being too suspicious, then I'd really be suspicious.
Of course that you have to act corteous.
Good luck !

Kind regards,

Jos茅
