What's the art scene like in Seattle area? |
Is there a large artist community is Seattle? A good number of contemporary galleries? Does the art tend to be more crafty, or is there a market for high-end fine art? (Is it all just pretty landscape paintings and still lifes, or is there a place for conceptual art as well? Performance art?) Yes, there is a significant artist community in Seattle. Lots of contemporary galleries. Though you can find art that is crafty (especially at the Pike Place Market and in shops near touristy spots), there is definitely a market for high-end fine art. Get a Sunday Seattle newspaper or a Thurs or Friday one and look at the inserts that describe the art scene and what's showing at the galleries. Glass art is big here because of Chihuly. Yes, there's conceptual art as well, and some performance art. The best way to find out would be to read about the art scene, call a couple of galleries, and talk to the people there to find out more detail about what you want to know. Start with http://www.gonorthwest.com/washington/se... to get some links and phone numbers and go from there. Good luck. I love Seattle, the art scene is a little different. More real life imagination, not very many fancy pic's. They have this place called " Pikes Place Market" it is down town Seattle. Look it up online, it's totally awsome.. Lots of artist and I find more beautiful abstract paintings which I love cause of the imagination put into them. There are not alot of the boring landscape and still pic's. Unfortunately there is not a high demand for art, although there are plenty of galleries. Best bet is to take a day trip here and find out if this is what you want. Good luck. Best wishes that you find what you are looking for... AMAZING... Check this site and judge it by yourself http://www.stayinwashington.com/federall... |
