Description
A well-known advocate and proponent of art in Chicago, Paul Klein is a long-time gallerist whose friendships with artists, dealers, collectors and curators have afforded him a rare vantage point on the vagaries and victories of the art world. Since closing his gallery in 2004, he has parlayed his insider knowledge into a cottage industry that addresses the imbalance between visual artists' gifts for creation and their frequent unfamiliarity with managing successful careers.
Based on his many years in both the art world as a gallery owner and educator, The Art Rules is a practical, operational guide for visual artists that demystifies the art world and empowers practitioners to find success on their own terms. Filling a major void, The Art Rules gives practitioners the tools they need to realise their potential.

'In the art world, too much tends to be ethereal. The art-centric focus of The Art Rules is refreshing and should be in every aspiring artist's library.' -- Diane Donovan, California BookwatchMore details
