"Industry Perspectives: See You at MoMa"

I was recently asked to write the short essay, "Industry Perspectives: See You at MoMa" for the journal "Art Business News." It was good, because a lot of people ask about what it takes to become a successful artist, and I wanted to offer something easy for them to digest, yet still had enough substance to be relevant.

I like what Ben Sidran had to say about making it as a jazz musician. According to him, you need a good travel agent, and Louis Armstong had a FANTASTIC travel agent (paraphrased from his song, A Good Travel Agent).

So I guess making it as an artist is similar to making it as a jazz musician; you need a good travel agent. And seafood.
