Dang, This is all I hear. I'm so avant garde I scare off business. Yes, I have commercial stuff and am capable of doing it, but everyone keeps telling me to do fine art. But even there, the gallery people (at least the mundane ones I'm able to talk to) only want to sell big colourful abstract canvases. Not that I'm against that or can't do them. But no one seems interested in the ideas. Which is strange, because the best stuff happening involves them. My uber creativity seems to be a liability when all people seem to want is reproductions of existing sucesses. Does anyone else run into this?

Do you own art, screw everyone else, unless you are attempting to make money at it, then bend a bit I guess...?

people will try to suffocate and destroy anything they don't understand - especially when they are paying for it.

Make some slides, send them around tp other cities.

Or get some other artists together and curate your own shows. You might be able to negotiate a better %-age too. Especially if you prep the gallery youself.
