Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Your essential guide to publicity, finance and career management with advice from the top. Including everything you didn't get in art school, and even more. • Are you making art but nobody seems to notice? • Do you find it difficult to make money or develop your network? • Need to add some skills to make your career worthwhile? Look no further. The ArtStars* Guide to Getting Your Shit together is the go-to ebook for any art student, art school grad or professional artist in or entering the contemporary art world with a goal of cashing in and making a splash in the public eye. Beginning from the core basics, this tell-all inspiration ebook covers every aspect of working as an individual artist – beyond the studio practice. Every successful, professional artist knows they must put in the extra effort to get noticed, and that means more than just sitting in your studio making your work in the dark. Since interviewing thousands of artists since 2003, the internationally-acclaimed arts journalist and celebrity interviewer, Nadja Sayej has written this book to help artists succeed with career management, publicity and finance. With a focus on recovering from your biggest mistakes, this must-have guide is built for visual artists who want to thrive, not just survive, in an increasingly visual-based society. There is No Business in BFA Art schools don’t train artists for media interviews, how-to price their work, or even ways to profit as self-made entrepreneurs. That’s why there’s an ebook to get you caught up on the homework you never got (and it’s cheaper than a MFA). Reality Check In the real world, there are many artists who get press but no sales. Hence, people in their 30s and 40s are totally well-known in their industry, but have nothing to show financially. This is totally unfair but totally possible to change. In fact, it’s never too late to change that. Career Advice from the Top Getting your shit together is about finding your own voice and managing your career in a time when you can’t expect other people to do everything for you. You can have a gallerist, an agent, a PR team and a studio, but if you’re not in control of your own life, you will not get results. The advice in this ebook comes from interviews with: • Marina Abramovic • James Franco • Yoko Ono • Genesis P-Orridge • Olafur Eliasson • Peaches • Hercules & Love Affair • Chilly Gonzales • … curators, artists, collectors, and more! What you’ll get in this must-have ebook: • How-to think beyond the artist statement and create a compelling vision • How to put together a press kit and the five necessary elements you need to succeed • How to get press from newspapers, magazines and blogs • How-to stay quotable and notable in a media interview • What to do if you get a bad review – or if they get all the facts wrong • The do’s and don’ts of an artist’s website • Where to put in the extra effort • Selling without selling out • Taxes, business tips and how-to create an effective sales plan • How-to gain a unique edge over competitors • Results-driven strategies for business networking • How-to make more money and how-to ask for more Ebook Facts • Over 42,000 words, 76 pages • Available in pdf, epub and kindle • This ebook is divided into five sections: Vision, Perfecting your Presence, Press & Publicity, Art & Finance and Networking Your Way to the Top • This third edition including never-seen-before material with new interviews, quotes and hot tips • Covers the breadth of publicity, finance and career management with advice from the top Once you take a thorough read of this ebook, you'll be on your way to a clear-thinking, focused art career with all your bases covered.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: "The Celebrity Interview Book" is a collection of 21 interviews with some of the world's biggest stars who dish their deepest tales. These interviews were conducted by entertainment journalist Nadja Sayej and this is her greatest hits from the past seven years. Her first book, there are photos of the stars from the writer's personal archive, an introduction explaining what it's like meeting them alongside the uncut interview. For this first volume of interviews, she spoke with Susan Sarandon on spending Christmas with refugees in Greece, Jean Paul Gaultier on making his childhood dream come true, Yoko Ono philosophizing about turning 80, James Franco on making art and Wyclef Jean on the political fate of America. There are also interviews with Dita Von Teese, Faith Evans and Bill Nye, among others.This book is filled with anecdotes of sneaking into VIP parties (as well as sneaking out of boring ones), speaking up, shouting out, shutting up and letting the bizarre quirks of the rich and famous speak for themselves. They were all possible by going the unconventional route. As Katherine Hepburn once said: "If you obey all the rules, you miss all the fun."

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: These stories about struggling artists are “a fierce and funny exploration of creation and its discontents” (Steve Almond, author of My Life in Heavy Metal). Set in various creative communities—an art school, an illegal loft studio, a guerrilla street performance troupe—where teamwork and professional jealousy mix, these interconnected short stories by prizewinning author Anne Elliot follow artists as they grapple with economic realities and evolving expectations. A middle-aged poet, reeling from 9/11, fights homesickness, writer’s block, and ladybugs at an artist’s colony. A new empty-nester finds a creative outlet in her community garden, but gets tangled up in garden politics. As the characters pass through each other’s stories, making messes and helping mop them up, some find inspiration in accidents and others are ready to quit art completely. Together, they stumble through the creative process, struggling to make art and find the spark of something new and original within themselves. In a world where the odds of becoming a star are nearly impossible, The Artstars tells the darkly humorous yet moving stories of those who dare to dream.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: A National Book Critics Circle Finalist for Criticism A deeply Malcolmian volume on painters, photographers, writers, and critics. Janet Malcolm's In the Freud Archives and The Journalist and the Murderer, as well as her books about Sylvia Plath and Gertrude Stein, are canonical in the realm of nonfiction—as is the title essay of this collection, with its forty-one "false starts," or serial attempts to capture the essence of the painter David Salle, which becomes a dazzling portrait of an artist. Malcolm is "among the most intellectually provocative of authors," writes David Lehman in The Boston Globe, "able to turn epiphanies of perception into explosions of insight." Here, in Forty-one False Starts, Malcolm brings together essays published over the course of several decades (largely in The New Yorker and The New York Review of Books) that reflect her preoccupation with artists and their work. Her subjects are painters, photographers, writers, and critics. She explores Bloomsbury's obsessive desire to create things visual and literary; the "passionate collaborations" behind Edward Weston's nudes; and the character of the German art photographer Thomas Struth, who is "haunted by the Nazi past," yet whose photographs have "a lightness of spirit." In "The Woman Who Hated Women," Malcolm delves beneath the "onyx surface" of Edith Wharton's fiction, while in "Advanced Placement" she relishes the black comedy of the Gossip Girl novels of Cecily von Zeigesar. In "Salinger's Cigarettes," Malcolm writes that "the pettiness, vulgarity, banality, and vanity that few of us are free of, and thus can tolerate in others, are like ragweed for Salinger's helplessly uncontaminated heroes and heroines." "Over and over," as Ian Frazier writes in his introduction, "she has demonstrated that nonfiction—a book of reporting, an article in a magazine, something we see every day—can rise to the highest level of literature." One of Publishers Weekly's Best Nonfiction Books of 2013

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: A “witty [and] compelling” true story for kids about San Francisco’s Golden Gate Bridge—and why it’s orange—by the New York Times–bestselling author! (Fast Company). In this delightfully original nonfiction book, National Book Award and Pulitzer Prize finalist Dave Eggers tackles one of the most famous architectural monuments in the world: the Golden Gate Bridge—and all the arguments and debates about building it and what it should look like. Cut-paper illustrations by Tucker Nichols enliven the tale, and this revised edition also includes real-life letters from local constituents making the case for keeping the bridge orange. With sly humor and lots of fascinating historical facts, this is an accessible, enjoyable read for kids (or adults), transporting readers to the glorious Golden Gate no matter where they live. “Eggers’s featherlight humor provides laughs throughout.” —Publishers Weekly (starred review). “A love letter to infrastructure.” —The New York Times “A story compelling enough to keep adults interested as they read it (and re-read it and re-read it) each night at bedtime.” —Fast Company

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: A fly-on-the-wall account of the smart and strange subcultures that make, trade, curate, collect, and hype contemporary art. The art market has been booming. Museum attendance is surging. More people than ever call themselves artists. Contemporary art has become a mass entertainment, a luxury good, a job description, and, for some, a kind of alternative religion. In a series of beautifully paced narratives, Sarah Thornton investigates the drama of a Christie's auction, the workings in Takashi Murakami's studios, the elite at the Basel Art Fair, the eccentricities of Artforum magazine, the competition behind an important art prize, life in a notorious art-school seminar, and the wonderland of the Venice Biennale. She reveals the new dynamics of creativity, taste, status, money, and the search for meaning in life. A judicious and juicy account of the institutions that have the power to shape art history, based on hundreds of interviews with high-profile players, Thornton's entertaining ethnography will change the way you look at contemporary culture.
