vg41. Needed by Artist: Artists curriculam vitae, list of start up documents and examples of art contracts.

               

I might have an organization that will sponsor my work.  I have been told to contact a firm for a price list and schedule.  The first thing I thought of was a law firm to take care of all the paper work that is needed to start a business.  I have found that the circle of people around me have an averse reaction to this.  One comment was that a team of lawyers to start a company is for multi-million dollar firms. I have yet to sell anything.  So I have been going through my contact list to see what I can do by myself before I get to a law firm that specializes in paperwork for beginning companies.  here is the letter I drafted to start with.

Good day,

My name is Kathy Vivian Fabian. I am a self-employed artist with my own art studio and marketing firm. It is called Art Fabian Company.

I am very much interested in the very good work that you do.  I look forward to attending your workshop in July. 

However, for the moment, I am looking for the following resources:

1. A guideline on how to create an artistic curriculum vitae. You have a book that is called ‘Montreal Entrepreneur's Guidebook. Does this contain sample curriculum vitae for artists?

2. A guide that lists all the legal documents needed to maintain an art studio and marketing firm from the home.

3.  A resource book with various sample contracts that an artist would find useful:  

      For example:

      A contract for an association with an exhibition space 

      A contract that would protect my work if I hiring virtual staff members for my company.

Any information you have as to where I could find these resources would be much appreciated. Please send your correspondence to valuablegallery@outlook.com.

Sincerely

Kathy Vivian Fabian
