I agree Michael Bodidge. I quite galleries in '90th because in my case, I understood no chance to make a contract in fair for me and I din't like to follow thier dimention's order to sell works. Saddly, I knew so many innocent good artists were gone out by the unfair gallery systems which take everything
from the artits. But those artworks generally has been sold in high cost to thiere clietns. Who buy art and the dealers , they knew how to get the good clients.

Galleries that don't bother to reply even when they have asked for stuff.
goal post shifting, public art by committee.
curators who think they are god.

Narrow mindedness. Censorship. People who put down artists for a miriad of petty reasons. Thats just the start!

That is bloody rude and it gets on my nerves too - I just delete them. The other thing that really gets my goat is petty feuding and general nastiness of that kind - this just isn't the place for it...

I'm new to artreview.com and I'm getting really pissed by artists I don't know that try to use my comment wall as promotional tool for their art. It's sooooooo rude!!

I'd like to find out what it is that gets you absolutely fuming!
Some things that get me going are:
- non artists who think you should be making a killing making fountains for garden centres.
- Curators that put your work in the corner behind the exit sign.
- Making a loss on a sale because of high commision costs.
