sales?

7:46 AM |

Some of the stores in which I display my work, or in which I sell cards, I have agreements in writing. Some of them, I don't. (Ducking, waiting for the inevitable "how could you be so stupid/short-sighted/brain-dead?" round of volleys.)
Typically, the burden of absorbing a loss of art-work due to damage is borne by me, in our agreements. I look at it as part of doing business. I've only lost one 13x19 framed piece - and it was only the glass from the frame.
I would imagine there are as many different types of agreements as there are individuals and shops with which to create them. May you have astounding luck with your opportunity!

Subject: [artshow_photo] Arrangement/contract for retail store display/sales?

Hi, all,

I may have an opportunity to display some of my pieces at a local boutique and wondered if any of you use some kind of consignment contract to ensure the store gets its fair cut as well as to have contingency plans if something gets damaged. That is, if a shopper, say, were to inadvertently damage the photo would the store take responsibility?

I tried searching but didn't get any hits in the forum - sorry if this is redundant.
