12:00 – 1:00 (SUN SEPT 21) PANEL DISCUSSION:
PORTFOLIO REVIEWS, AN INSIDER’S LOOK
Featuring Manjari Sharma and Ariel Shanberg in conversation with Stephen Mallon
Moderated by Stephen Mallon, artist Manjari Sharma and Ariel Shanberg, (Executive Director of the Woodstock Center of Photography) discuss portfolio reviews on how to get as much out of the review circuit as possible. This is not a common sense discussion, this is a talk from both sides of the table about how much business gets done at the bar and at the event vs your actual review. What’s the biggest thing you learned from a review? What’s the worst promo you’ve seen? What about follow ups? How long does an artist need to wait before reaching out again?
