The article, consisting of advice to artists who are interested in public careers, is based on my eight years of writing almost-weekly art reviews for the Chicago Reader, noticing what artists often do wrong — and right. The titles of individual sections give some sense of the article's scope: Remember Your Name, Finding a Gallery, Publicizing Your Show, Documenting Your Show, Presenting Your Show, The Care and Feeding of Art Critics, and The Internet.

The issues are now sold out, but a photocopy of all three parts of the article can be purchased from the Chicago Artist's Coalition for $4.00. Persons outside the U.S. may inquire by email as to shipping costs. The Chicago Artists' Coalition is at 11 E. Hubbard Street; Seventh Floor; Chicago IL 60611; Email caconline@earthlink.net
