I have always enjoyed open art exhibitions, as it is a way to have a look at some of the art styles of creators in local areas. The Doncaster open art exhibition had over 150 artist with varying styles and techniques. Although this isn't related to my practice or my research, I feel it is relavent to mention as it is a way of showcasing design work. Open art isn't limited to fine artists, it is for any creators be that a comic book artist or a concept artist. One of the artworks showcased was a large painting of Iron Man selling at £900, while across the room was a manga styled drawing selling at £50.
I think open art exhibitions would be a good place to sell or showcase character concepts or art concepts from animations that we have created, there were many similar products that were created by local artists and the exhibition is open to anyone and anything. Perhaps next year I might showcase some character artwork there and see if anyone would comment.
