Manhattan
Arts International: Setting the Standard for Online Galleries
One
of the more exemplary virtual galleries is that of Manhattan Arts
International, presided over by Renée Phillips. Savvy pro
that she is, Phillips has selected the artists on her site in
much the same way that any discerning gallery director would,
choosing talent that, for all their stylistic diversity, complement
each other and contribute to
a consistent aesthetic agenda. Read

"The Art of Marketing" by Perri
Colley

she says.

Manhattan Profile: Renée
Phillips by Sheila McKenna
Founder and publisher of Manhattan Arts, a publication devoted
to the arts. One of her biggest accomplishments: "I've been
able to help other artists and keep my ideals. I started Manhattan
Arts on my own, with very little capital."

Artists' News
"Book Review" by Robert Kameczura
The New York Art World can be a jungle to the uninitiated -- and
this book (Complete Guide to New York Art Galleries) can be your
chart into unexplored territory. Phillips, the author of several
books on pursuing success in the art world, gives seminars on
this topic and is editor of Manhattan Arts International, and
is a consultant to artists interested in exhibiting in NYC. As
might be expected from someone of her obvious energy, this book
is a comprehensive guide.

The Proof
"Book News" by the Editor
"People are shocked to learn that I personally contact each
gallery. They think it must be a dreadful, tedious activcity,
but I really enjoy the process," says Renée Phillips,
author of The Complete Guide to New York Art Galleries. A few
steps away from completing the current edition she was eager to
share her discoveries. How did Phillips find the tone of gallery
owners? "Overall, I found them to be very pleasant and interested
in sharing information."
